How to Make Pineapple Mango Rum Punch

Making this punch is straightforward and fun. You simply gather your juices, mix them with rum, and add ice. There’s nothing complicated here, just some simple stirring and pouring. It’s the kind of recipe that allows even beginners to feel like pros!

What You Need

3 oz of pineapple coconut juice
3 oz of coconut rum (you can also use light or dark rum here instead)
1 oz of mango juice
1 oz of orange juice
Splash of grenadine (mainly just for looks)
Lime slices and/or orange zest for garnish
Edible flowers for garnish

Step-by-Step

Step 1: Combine all juices. Combine all juices (pineapple coconut, mango, and orange) and rum. Then stir. Tropical rum drinks like this can be used with all kinds of fruit juices.

Step 2: Stir and pour over ice. I like using nugget ice for cocktails because it looks really pretty. Plus, I like chewing ice, and this one is the best!

Step 3: Add color. This is an optional step, but I like adding a splash of grenadine for color to rum punch cocktails. The grenadine will fall to the bottom and give the drink a pretty ombre look. It’s not a necessary step, but definitely adds an unexpected pop of color—great for parties.

Step 4: Garnish. To take this cocktail up a notch, add lime, orange zest, and/or edible flowers for garnish. I like using orchids for a drink like this because it makes such a big impact. Did you know that orchids are actually edible? To get the orange zest ribbon, I just used a peeler to peel a long strip of zest from the orange. Not going to lie, it took a couple of tries to get a long piece that I could then curl, but it’s worth it, in my opinion.

FAQs

Can I make this punch ahead of time?
Absolutely! You can mix the juices and rum a few hours before serving. Just wait to add ice and grenadine until you’re ready. This helps keep it fresh and prevents dilution from melting ice.

Can I freeze this punch?
Freezing isn’t recommended due to the consistency of fruit juices when thawed. Instead, store it in the fridge for a day to maintain its delightful flavor.

What if I don’t have all the juices?
No worries! Feel free to mix and match with what you have. Apple juice, cranberry juice, or even lemonade can work nicely. Just remember that the flavor profile may change a bit.

How can I make it less sweet?
To reduce sweetness, you can cut down on the grenadine or add a bit more lime juice for a tangier taste.

What are good snacks to serve with this?
Pair it with cheese platters, fruit skewers, or light appetizers like shrimp cocktails. These compliment the fruity flavors of the punch beautifully!
