We had a holiday/Christmas party for execs from the company and hired a caterer to cater and serve at the cocktail party. But, what's a cocktail party without the cocktails? A mocktail party!!
The caterer was great - he sourced halal meat and provided non-alcoholic drinks. He left us his recipes in case we wanted to make the drinks for ourselves.
Coco Colada:
4 oz pineapple juice
2 oz. cream of coconut
In a blender, add 1 cup ice, 4 oz. pineapple juice and 2 oz. cream of coconut (or 6 oz. pina colada mix). Blend until slushy and strain into an old fashioned drinking or margarita glass. Garnish with an orange wheel.
Smart-ini
2 oz pineapple juice
2 tsp lime juice
2 oz. cranberry juice
- In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, add 2 oz. pineapple juice, 2 tsp. lime juice and 2 oz. cranberry juice. Shake and strain into a Martini glass.
- Garnish with a pineapple and cranberry skewer.
- Alternatively, add all ingredients to a rocks glass filled with ice; garnish as instructed.
He may have added club soda to the smart-ini - but I'm not sure.
