Also known as the Bob Marley this tantalising cocktail is made with Blue Curacao, Grenadine and pineapple juice. A distinctive cocktail with three layers, each representing one of the colours of the Rastafarian flag.
This popular drink is fun, tropical and delicious!
INGREDIENTS:
Red layer – bottom
1 tot Light Rum (also known as silver rum)
2 tots Strawberry Daiquiri Mix
1 tot Grenadine Syrup
Yellow layer – middle
Pineapple juice makes up most of the middle layer. Since the Grenadine is heavier, the pineapple (or mango) will float above it creating the middle third of the drink.
1 tot Light Rum
3 tots of Pineapple Juice or Mango Juice. You can use fresh mango or pineapple hunks, but you’ll need to blend this mixture in a blender.
1 tot of Sweet and Sour Mix.
Green layer – top
Remaining yellow layer mixture.
1/2 tot Blue Curacao
Garnish
Add a wedge or slice of fresh pineapple.
On a cocktail skewer, add a few maraschino cherries.
Sprig of Mint (optional)
DIRECTIONS:
STEP 1: Combine all ingredients for the red layer into a cocktail shaker with just a few ice cubes. Shake until chilled.
STEP 2: Pour the mixture into the bottom of the glass (filling 1/3 of the glass). This is the lowest third of your glass.
STEP 3: Fill your glass with ice. This will depend on the size of your glass.
STEP 4: Rinse the cocktail shaker then add all ingredients for the yellow layer. Shake with a few ice cubes until chilled.
STEP 5: Slowly strain into your glass filling the middle 1/3 of the glass. Use only half of the mixture.
STEP 6: Use the remaining drink mixture in the cocktail shaker and add 1/2 tots of Blue Curacao. Shake until chilled and pour slowly on top.
STEP 7: Add a slice of pineapple and maraschino cherries for garnish. Optional, add a sprig of mint too.
