Print Recipe

A simple, refreshing coconut rum punch paired with vibrant tropical fruit skewers, perfect for summer parties and casual gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) canned coconut cream (not coconut milk)
  • 1 ½ cups (360 ml) pineapple juice (fresh or bottled unsweetened)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) orange juice (freshly squeezed or store-bought)
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) fresh lime juice
  • 1 cup (240 ml) light rum (e.g., Bacardi or Captain Morgan)
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) simple syrup (homemade or store-bought, adjust to taste)
  • Fresh pineapple chunks (firm and sweet)
  • Ripe mango cubes
  • Seedless grapes (red or green)
  • Kiwi slices (peeled)
  • Strawberries (hulled and halved)
  • Large ice cubes
  • Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Wash and dry all fruit. Cut pineapple, mango, and kiwi into roughly 1-inch chunks. Hull and halve strawberries, keep grapes whole.
  2. Thread the fruit onto skewers in a colorful pattern. Chill skewers in the fridge while preparing the punch.
  3. In a large pitcher, combine coconut cream, pineapple juice, orange juice, and lime juice. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
  4. Add light rum and simple syrup to the pitcher. Stir gently to combine. Taste and adjust sweetness or lime juice as needed.
  5. Add large ice cubes to the punch to keep it chilled without diluting quickly. Optionally chill in the fridge for 30 minutes before serving.
  6. Pour punch into glasses, add a fruit skewer to each, and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired.

Notes

Whisk the coconut cream well before mixing to avoid clumps. Use large ice cubes to prevent quick dilution. Prepare fruit skewers ahead and keep chilled. Adjust sweetness and lime juice after mixing to balance flavors. For a non-alcoholic version, omit rum and add coconut or sparkling water.
