I don’t know what to call them! Cocktails are more fun when they have an official name. Not just the ingredients listed out in the title. But these are pretty tasty, no matter what the name is. They’re perfect for fall, football games, cool evenings and tailgates.
These cocktails are made with Blue Chair Bay’s Spiced Coconut Rum. I know. I love coconut rum. It’s one of my favorite things. I just want to put that stuff in everything. Drinks, cakes, tacos, pizza. Just kidding.
But really.
Last year, my family took a beach trip in November. Typically we go in the summer, but we didn’t make it down there for whatever reason. My aunt and uncle have a beach house, so we finally got to go in the fall. And let me tell you, that was perfect beach weather. We took a walk on the beach and didn’t even break a sweat. It was bright and sunny, there was a little breeze, it wasn’t sweltering hot, and I didn’t get sunburned. Which is a miracle. We had a bonfire and football. It was perfect!
This recipe is inspired by that trip. Fall flavors with a little bit of a tropical twist. I like fruity and girly cocktails, and this is perfect if you do too! It’s a little on the sweeter side, which really shouldn’t be a surprise if you’ve followed this blog for any length of time. It’s also really simple and only requires four ingredients! So you really have no excuse for not making it. Especially because–after you scroll down past the recipe–you can win your very own bottle! Happy Friday, y’all!

These were SO tasty and our next door neighbors loved them so much, they drank almost the whole pitcher! Good thing they walked over!
What a great sounding drink! It’s like tropical meets fall. Love it! I wish I could help you out with the name thing, but I totally stink at that hahahaha. This rum sounds fantastic!
Beth,
This looks so tasty! I LOVE anything coconut. The only rum I have is a coconut rum. This sounds devine. Cant wait to try this one. Yum!!
Beth you should call them:
Sliced Cider Cocktails
(for the actual slices that accompany the drink)
I would have to make a rum cake with that spiced rum! Possibly a chocolate one! Can’t wait to try the drink also!
That’s a good name for them – she needs a good name!
That sounds delicious! I’m definitely going to have to try this!
Yum! These sound interesting! I would pick the Coconut Rum. And I am over 21 🙂
Yes, I am over 21! 🙂 I would love to try the Spiced Coconut Rum!!
This is making me so nostalgic for you to come visit again! (We’re going in a couple of weeks hint hint 🙂 I vote Seagrove Spicers.
The beach getaway that inspired this tasty drink is what sounds like really really fun.
Yes, I like coconut rum and yes I like simple!
This sounds great! I bet it would ever be good warm sitting by the fire.
Yes, I’m 21 and I would choose spiced coconut.

Oh man do I need this in my life this week. It’d be the perfect drink to enjoy on Halloween night. 😀 What about apple cider colada? Meh. Not as exciting as “sidecar” or “singapore sling” – I’ll keep working on it and get back to you. 😉
Obviously this should be called the November Beach. 🙂 I’ll take 10% royalties, please!
How about “Apple Of My Eye’ for a name?
Whiskey cider has been my drink of choice this fall…but that was before I knew there was such a thing as spiced coconut rum?! I might just have to switch things up a bit!
I just made there with sparkling apple cider and parrot bay coconut rum and there fabulous!
