Mi, er for Malibu

I have a craving for Malibu so going to add a bottle into my shop.

I can't drink spirits straight so I'm looking for a mixer to mix with Malibu. What will go well with Malibu?

Orange juice was mentioned online from a search but the thought of coconut flavour and orange juice doesn't appeal to me.

Would 7up go well with malibu?

Milk. It's lush (and rich in calcium so obviously very good for you)

I love a Malibu bay breeze. Malibu with cranberry juice and pineapple juice 😍

Thanks for all the replies. Pineapple juice it is. I might get coconut milk too.

Would the alpro coconut milk be good or will I get the canned coconut milk?

I'd say any would do, go easy and add to taste! Cheers!

@dancingindungarees

Pineapple juice was my choice years ago.
Yes! Or Malibu and coke
Weedsnseeds1 · 29/01/2021 15:29

Soda water and lime if you aren't into sickly sweet.
Get the Alpro coconut milk, canned is very thick.

Bailey's and whisky Wink Back in the day, when a guy would sidle up to me in a club and offer to buy me a drink, I'd always ask for a BMW. He'd reappear a few minutes later with my drink looking a bit pissed off and several ££ lighter.

Pineapple juice, chunk of tinned pineapple + glacé cherry on cocktail stick and squeeze of lime. Go all out with bit of whipped cream and toasted shredded coconut sprinkles. Umbrella!!!!

Puddlepop · 29/01/2021 16:13

purrs that’s an imaginative combination, I never would’ve had those three mixed together!

CuriousaboutSamphire · 29/01/2021 16:15

Milk.....

WhatWouldPhyllisCraneDo · 29/01/2021 16:17

Pineapple juice.
Coke.
Lemonade.
Hot chocolate.

Not altogether of course!

NonagonInfinityOpensTheDoor · 29/01/2021 16:18

Pineapple juice as others have said. If you have tastebuds don’t mix it with lemonade, pineapple juice is sweet, Malibu is sweet anything else is a literal overkill and you’ll regret it after one drink.

TwoLeftSocksWithHoles · 29/01/2021 16:24

Any of the above but essential to add a small umbrella.

duckme · 29/01/2021 16:26

Pineapple juice is lovely with Malibu. Like a very basic pina colada.

CarlottaValdez · 29/01/2021 16:26

And a sparkler

@puddlepop I wish I could take credit for the BMW but it's a thing! Grin

Fanta Orange or Lemon.

gingerninja99 · 29/01/2021 16:44

I have mine with coke and maraschino cherries Grin

praecantator · 29/01/2021 16:48

The key is in proportions: Malibu is sweet as fuck, so is pineapple juice but they are colmplementary in flavours. So, one must use them sparingly, whilst being heavy-handed with the plain white rum, to dilute the sweetness, naturally Grin and then add some velvety coconut milk to mask the viciousness of the concoction.
Like a kitten, down it goes. The claws will show when trying to stand up/move in co-ordinated manner.

Plump82 · 29/01/2021 16:52

Oooh I love a Malibu and milk. Wish I had some in now!

InsideOfEmptiness · 29/01/2021 16:56

Pineapple juice or milk, for sure.

CeibaTree · 29/01/2021 18:36

Ahh the thought of a malibu and coke takes me back to my teenage years, enjoy OP :)

LegendDairy · 29/01/2021 18:56

Hard to get hold of but Koko Kanu is a million times nicer than Malibu.

noblegreenk · 29/01/2021 23:10

Pineapple juice. It's the only way I'll drink Malibu.

Estara · 29/01/2021 23:47

Malibi and coke, or if you fancy a holiday type drink, Malibu with orange and passion fruit J20. Hmmm not had that for a while 🍹
