Pineapple wedge on rim
How to make:
SHAKE first 5 ingredients with ice and strain back into shaker. DRY SHAKE (without ice) and strain into chilled glass. Then POUR liqueur into the centre of the drink. It should sink to create a blue base and leave a blue spot in the centre of this drink's frothy head.
1 1/2 fl oz | Vanilla flavoured vodka |
1/2 fl oz | Coconut rum liqueur (35-40% alc./vol.) |
1/4 fl oz | Lime juice (freshly squeezed) |
3/4 fl oz | Pineapple juice (freshly extracted/pressed/squeezed) |
1/4 fl oz | Pasteurised egg white or Aquafaba (chickpea water) or 3 dashes Fee Brothers Fee Foam cocktail foamer |
1/24 fl oz | Blue curaçao liqueur |
Hazardous ingredients
Pasteurised egg white is potentially hazardous to those with allergy or intolerance.
Review:
A great-looking holiday (Tiki-style) cocktail with vanilla, coconut and pineapple.
Variant:
This drink can be finished with your choice of different coloured and flavoured liqueurs. For example, substitute blue curaçao (blue) for melon liqueur (green) or a berry liqueur such as cassis (red).

My 2003 adaptation of the then signature drink at the MercBar on Mercer Steet in Soho, New York City, USA.
