Blue Hawaii

Curaçao-based beach drink

Blue Hawaii is a tropical cocktail made with rum, blue curaçao, pineapple juice, and sometimes coconut cream, served over ice and garnished with fruit.

The drink's vivid turquoise color evokes the Pacific waters off Hawaii.

The name also refers to the 1961 Elvis Presley film set in the islands.
