It's my daughters birthday today, so I thought I'd post a drink today for her, one that is as beautiful as she is. I'll nickname this cocktail the Emalee.
This is one very pretty and absolutely delicious cocktail.
Think smoothie meets cocktail, it just feels so healthy with all the fruit in it.
The original post says you can try different flavour combinations and I definitely will do that.
She suggests
Strawberry and Banana
Pineapple and Blueberry
Peach and Mango.
You can make these kid friendly, just don't add the rum and it’s a delicious smoothie.
You can substitute white rum for malibu, if you want to enhance the coconut flavour even more.
This recipe is easy to double or triple.
Tip: Shake the cream of coconut can well before you open it.
Your fruit needs to be frozen, or the consistency will not be thick.

Strawberry Layer: Place the strawberries, rum, and pineapple juice into a blender and blend until smooth. I never get it perfectly smooth, but I like the bits of strawberry, just make sure you get it smooth enough to go through a straw.
Pour it into the bottom of 2 glasses. Clean out the blender.
Place the pineapple chunks, rum, pineapple juice, and cream of coconut into the blender and blend until smooth. This makes the pineapple coconut layer, pour it or spoon it over the strawberry layer in both glasses.
Garnish with pineapples and strawberries if desired.
