Adios mi amor sits firmly in the modern tropical highball camp: a tall, fruit-forward rum drink built for easy sipping and bright colour. It reads like a sunshine cocktail rather than a storied classic, leaning on flavoured rum and liqueur to deliver an instantly approachable profile. You’ll find it closer in spirit to contemporary beach-bar mixes than to heritage recipes with a fixed origin story.
On the palate, pineapple rum brings a sweet, ripe base that’s amplified by the tangy perfume of passion fruit liqueur. Orange juice tops everything up with soft citrus sweetness, stretching the drink into a long, refreshing format without turning it sharply tart. A tablespoon of mango purée adds a thicker, lush tropical body, while a dash of grenadine threads in pomegranate-like sweetness and a gentle red-fruit depth that also gives the drink its sunset hue.
Serve it when you want something playful and crowd-pleasing—poolside, at a summer barbecue, or as a holiday-at-home opener. If you like juicy, tropical flavours and prefer your cocktails on the sweeter, smoother side, this one lands perfectly. It’s also an easy choice for guests who want rum without anything too boozy or bitter.

Highball glass
Ingredients
Cocktail Colin says:
Pineapple rum and passion fruit liqueur lead with lush tropical sweetness, while orange juice stretches it into a bright, juicy highball; a tablespoon of mango puree adds thick, ripe body and a grenadine dash brings a candy-like red-fruit accent. It works because the citrusy orange keeps the richer mango and grenadine from feeling cloying, making it ideal for easy-sipping, fruit-first drinkers who like dessert-leaning tropicals.
