3.93 / 5
The Malibu Sea Breeze is a tropical cocktail that captures the essence of a breezy summer day by the sea. This refreshing and fruity drink combines the sweet, nutty flavor of coconut rum with the tartness of cranberry juice and the tangy sweetness of pineapple juice, creating a well-rounded tropical beverage. It's typically served in a highball glass, which allows for plenty of ice to keep the drink cold and enhances the casual, laid-back vibe the cocktail embodies. Perfect for beach parties or as a relaxing sundowner, the Malibu Sea Breeze offers a sip of the tropics with its bright flavors and inviting appearance.
