Tropical cocktails
Tiki-leaning rum drinks — Mai Tai, Piña Colada, Jungle Bird, Hurricane, and Zombie — pineapple, citrus, and spice.
Tropical cocktails in this catalog are rum, pineapple, citrus, and spice — not every fruity vodka drink. The two to mix first are the Mai Tai (aged rum, lime, orgeat, orange liqueur) and the Piña Colada (white rum, pineapple, coconut cream). Campari in the rum sour is a Jungle Bird; passion fruit makes a Hurricane; the long multi-rum build is the Zombie. Expect more bottles than a Gimlet; the payoff is the vacation-in-a-glass set.

Tropical cocktail FAQ
What are tropical cocktails?
Rum drinks with pineapple, citrus, coconut, or tiki spice. This list is Mai Tai, Piña Colada, Jungle Bird, Hurricane, Yellow Bird, East 8 Hold Up, and Zombie. A Cosmopolitan is not tropical here.
What are easy tropical cocktails to mix at home?
Piña Colada if you have white rum, pineapple, and coconut cream. Hurricane if you have rum and passion-fruit mix. A Mai Tai needs orgeat. Easy tropical cocktails still shop more bottles than a sour; start with one rum style and lime, then add pineapple or coconut.
