Why we love the jack frost cocktail
- This blue cocktail tastes just like a piña colada, but it’s made with vodka instead of rum.
- Rimming this drink with coconut gives it a snowy look that’s perfect for winter, but you can enjoy it any time of the year.

Equipment
Ingredients & substitutions
- Cream of coconut – We used Coco Lopez cream of coconut. Don’t confuse this with coconut cream, which is a thicker, more unsweetened version of canned coconut milk. You want the sweetened version for this drink.
- Pineapple juice – Go for the canned kind. I like to buy smaller cans so I don’t end up with extra sitting around in my fridge, but the larger cans are more economical.
- Vodka – If you want, you can swap rum for this and you’ll end up with a blue piña colada.
- Blue curaçao – This gives the cocktail its color, so don’t skip or swap it.
How to make a jack frost cocktail
Prep your glasses. Lightly dip the rim of your glasses in corn syrup and then dip them into a plate of shredded coconut. Set them aside for later.
Blend the drink. Combine the ingredients in a high speed blender and run it on high until the drink is blended. If needed, reference the directions provided by your blender manufacturer.
Serve your cocktails. Divide the drink between your prepared glasses and serve immediately.
