Jump to Recipe

This frozen blue Hawaiian cocktail has wonderful tropical flavors - they're the perfect combination of light rum, blue curacao, coconut, and pineapple. Plus, this cocktail is blue. How fun is that?! Garnish with fresh pineapple and you have the perfect pick-me-up on a dreary day.

This tasty blue cocktail is also known as a 'swimming pool' and is very similar to a pina colada! No wonder I love to make this drink when I want a truly delicious cocktail. It never disappoints. Yum!

The perfect beach-inspired tropical cocktail for a hot day - or any day!

🍹 Ingredients

All of the ingredients you need to make a frozen blue Hawaiian cocktail at home can be found at your local liquor store.

  • Ice - Have lots of ice on hand before starting to blend your drinks!
  • Pineapple Juice - A big part of the tropical flavor! Don't add too much, or you'll turn your blue Hawaiian more aqua or light green in color!
  • Sweet & Sour Mix - If you don't have any, see my instructions for making your very own!
  • Cream Of Coconut - Make sure you are using cream of coconut (creme de coconut) not coconut cream!
  • Light Rum - I like J Wray Silver Jamaican rum. Malibu pineapple rum is also a popular choice.
  • Blue Curacao - This will get you that beloved blue drink. In a pinch any orange liqueur will work - Triple Sec, Grand Marnier, Cointreau, Aperol.
  • Optional Garnishes - Pineapple wedge, maraschino cherry & cocktail umbrella.

Be sure to see the free printable recipe card below for ingredients, exact amounts & instructions with tips!

🔪 How To Make A Frozen Blue Hawaiian

This is a very easy blender drink to make! It's one of my favorites for entertaining on short notice.

  1. Add 1 cup of ice to your blender.
  2. Pour in the 2 ounces of pineapple juice, 1 ounce sweet and sour mix, 1 ounce cream of coconut, 1 ounce light (white) rum, and 1 ounce blue curacao.
  3. Blend until smooth.
  4. Pour into a hurricane glass.
  5. Garnish with a pineapple wedge and cocktail umbrella.

Make Your Own Sweet & Sour Mix

  1. Combine 1 cup sugar with 1 cup water in a sauce pan, stir, and simmer 3-4 minutes.
  2. Set aside to cool.
  3. Once cool add ½ cup of lemon juice and ½ cup lime juice.
  4. Refrigerate till cold.

🥂 Cocktail Tips & Variations

  • Love coconut? Swap out the normal light rum for Malibu coconut rum!
  • Ditch the cream of coconut for vodka - and voila! you have a Frozen Blue Hawaii.
  • Add your favorite champagne or some prosecco for a 'Sparkling Blue Hawaiian'!
  • Don't want it blended? Simply shake and strain over ice!
  • Be sure you are using cream of coconut NOT coconut cream!
  • This drink is traditionally served in a hurricane glass, as seen here. For a fun twist try hollowing out a fresh coconut or a whole pineapple, or serve them up in tiki mugs!
  • When I plan ahead, I do chill the hurricane glasses (which I highly suggest).
