Midori Splice

April 7th, 2009

Bold cocktails are beautiful, especially when layering is involved. And anything that takes you back to a relaxing holiday on a beach is a definite… either on holiday or back home.

Even though it is getting cooler here in Sydney at the moment, I’m sure there’s still space for a cocktail or two, perhaps on the upcoming long weekend…

The addition of the coconut rum really makes this cocktail remind me of summer, the beach and relaxing. The beautiful layering of green, yellow and white also inspire holiday-like day-dreaming.

  1. Yep there’s a bit of time left to enjoy these although I am hoping for a bit more time! These look delicious, Splice ice creams were one of my favourite ice blocks as a child 🙂

  2. It looks beautifully summery. I love pineapple juice.

    There’s nothing like a colourful cocktail to make you feel like an underage drinker in a nite club again! Yum, I love Midori!

  4. What a great way to hold onto summer! I’m sure if you made summery cocktails all winter long it would keep the colds and flus away! You have an awesome looking blog by the way.
