Pineapple cocktails are always a hit with the crowd. Our Pineapple Margaritas are legendary and we make Pineapple Wine Punch for every get together. We also love Malibu Pineapple cocktails for parties.

Mimosas are super easy to make by the glass and will instantly elevate any occasion into something special. Make them with your favorite fruit juices and sparkling wine or champagne.

Ingredients Needed

• Pineapple Juice ~ Any bottled pineapple juice will work, we usually get Dole or Libby.
• Orange Juice ~ Fresh squeezed or your favorite brand.
• Sparkling Wine or Champagne ~ You don’t have to have a super expensive bottle, we like Barefoot Bubbly Moscato Spumante. It’s slightly sweet and pairs great with the tangy pineapple juice. Chill overnight for the most refreshing mimosas.
• Fresh Pineapple wedges or orange slices for garnish.

Step By Step Directions

Add pineapple juice to each champagne glass.

Next, add the orange juice.

Top with sparkling wine.

Garnish with fresh pineapple.

How Many Mimosas Per Bottle of Champagne

Generally you can expect to make 6-8 mimosas per bottle of champagne. I figure at least 2 drinks per person when planning for brunch.

How to Chill Champagne Quickly

Submerge champagne in ice water using an ice bucket large bowl for about 15 minutes. You can also wrap a wet kitchen towel around the bottle and place in the freezer for about 30 minutes.

More Mimosa Cocktails to Try

Strawberry Mimosas are made with fresh or frozen strawberries and your favorite sparkling wine for a refreshing cocktail perfect for any celebration or brunch get together.

Champagne Punch is made with a delicious fruity combination of pineapple, strawberry and orange and bubbly wine. It’s perfect for parties and celebrations.

Pomegranate Mimosas are light and refreshing and make a festive cocktail that everyone will enjoy.

Shop for Champagne Cocktails

We love these stemless champagne flutes or stemless wine glasses. I found plastic flutes and wine glasses from Amazon, which are great for parties. 

Hammered Champagne Bucket is perfect for chilling sparkling wines.

Pineapple Cocktail Picks are my favorite for garnishing pineapple cocktails.

Serve these sparkling pineapple mimosa cocktails for Easter brunch, bridal showers, birthday parties or any tropical themed party.

Champagne cocktails like these Pineapple Mimosas will add a festive vibe to any gathering with friends to celebrate holidays and special occasions.

Pineapple Mojitos

A mojito is a traditional Cuban cocktail made with white rum, fresh mint, lime, sugar and soda water. I am jazzing it up today with some tropical pineapple. You might also like my Easy Blackberry Mojitos for an easy cocktail to enjoy with friends.

If you are looking for a new cocktail, this is it! It’s so simple to keep all of the ingredients on hand and the flavor combination is sure to be a hit with the crowd.

How to Make Pineapple Mojitos:

1. Add about 10 fresh mint leaves to each collins glass with a slice of lime. Muddle the mint and lime together. 
2. Fill each glass with ice. 
3. Pour in pineapple juice and white rum. Fill remainder with Sprite. Garnish with lime slices and fresh mint.

How do you muddle a cocktail?

Muddling is essentially just smashing. For these mojitos, smashing the lime slices and mint leaves releases the oils into the cocktail, creating much more flavor.  If you don’t have a muddler, just use the end of a wooden spoon.  

Mojitos are so delicious that you really shouldn’t wait for a special occasion to try them! They are seriously easy and the perfect cocktail to enjoy at the end of a long week. 

The flavor combination of the citrus, mint and pineapple with the rum is beyond delicious. These pineapple mojitos just might be my new favorite drink.

Handy Tools for Mixing Cocktails:

• Mojitos are usually served in Colliins Glasses and they are also great every day glasses too.
• A cocktail jigger is so handy for measuring out cocktail ingredients. Use the small end for 1 ounce measurements and the large end for 2 ounces. 
• This cocktail spoon has a muddler on the end making it double handy! 
• Make your own cocktail ice with this counter top ice maker. 
• I love this juicer for adding fresh citrus to my cocktails.

Baileys Chai Float

I’m completely hooked on chai lattes. We live in the boondocks so we make them at home instead of going to the fancy coffee shop. My grandma got me hooked on this instant chai mix and after making chai floats a while back, I was inspired for a boozy version. I know you are going to love it!

PIN IT TO PINTEREST NOW!

Just take me to the recipe! Scroll all the way to the bottom for the printable recipe card with ingredients and full written directions. Otherwise, read on for cocktail tips and tricks for this easy dessert cocktail.

How to Make a Baileys Chai Float:

• Add Baileys Irish Cream and Black Spiced Rum.
• Stir Well.

• Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and sprinkle with a dash of cinnamon. 
• Serve immediately. 

The ice cream will melt down into the chai mixture and it’s sweet, creamy and delicious. Totally satisfying for your sweet tooth. Looks so pretty for entertaining guests too!

Recipe Variation:

You could also add another scoop or two of ice cream and blend this Baileys Chai into a boozy milkshake. Just make sure your chai is cooled. The flavors are absolutely irresistible and perfect for any time of year. 

If you would like to make these without the alcohol, you could use Baileys Coffee Creamers instead. They are delicious without the added liquor. You can also just make a Chai Float with the chai latte mix and add a scoop of ice cream, it’s delicious!

More Dessert Cocktails to Try:

• Dessert cocktails are pretty much my favorite thing these days. Just like the Salted Caramel Mudslide, this boozy float is an easy treat to make after a long day or a fun addition to your party plans. 
• Salted Caramel Guinness Floats are so easy to make and you are not going to believe how delicious they are!
• S’Mores Martinis  are like boozy chocolate milk! Topped off with a toasted marshmallow and the rim is crusted with graham cracker crumbs. A fun adult treat for any s’mores fan.
   
• Pumpkin Spice White Russian  is a favorite for fall parties and holiday get togethers. Simple and incredibly delicious. If you are a pumpkin spice fanatic, this one’s a keeper!
• We made Homemade Baileys a while back and it would make a super fun hostess gift for the holidays. So good in your morning coffee or your favorite dessert cocktail. 

If you love chai, these Chai Latte Glazed Donut Holes are an irresistible treat for the weekend. Made so easily with canned biscuits and a sweet chai glaze.

Easy Piña Coladas

Have you ever tried a Piña Colada? I think this was my first time to try it and I’ve been missing out! Now I’m all like the Garth Brooks song and I want one for each hand!

I made a couple of versions and included fresh pineapple in this version and it is out of this world amazing and so easy too!

How to Make Easy Piña Coladas:

1. Add Fresh pineapple chunks, rum, pineapple juice, coconut milk, simple syrup, lime juice and ice to a blender. Blend until smooth. 
2. Pour into glasses and garnish with pineapple wedges and maraschino cherries. 

Tips for the Best Piña Coladas:

The fresh pineapple adds an amazing amount of flavor to this rum cocktail. If you don’t have fresh pineapple, frozen will work but canned will not be quite the same. 

Piña Colada are great on the rocks. If you prefer that, just skip the ice and just serve the blended mixture over ice or chilled. It can be mixed in a cocktail shaker but I find that the coconut milk blends more smoothly in the blender. 

If you are looking for the virgin drink without alcohol, try these Piña Colada Mocktails. The perfect version for the kids!

Can You Freeze Piña Coladas?

You can make the Piña Coladas and freeze in an air tight freezer container or zip top freezer bag. Piña Coladas will keep up to 3 months in the freezer.

Use your favorite light rum. I used Bacardi for these cocktails and sometimes I use Captain Morgan. If you want to get fancy, you can float a bit of dark rum on top before serving.
