As the weather heats up, my mind drifts towards the allure of the tropics or the magic of Disneyland. And what if we could merge these two beloved worlds? Imagine indulging in the tangy sweetness of pineapple, the lusciousness of coconut, and the vibrant burst of mango—doesn't it sound irresistible? We wholeheartedly embrace these tropical flavors, particularly the renowned Disneyland dole whip pineapple that has become a summer essential.
That's why we have fallen head over heels for a delightful variation on the classic mimosa: Pineapple Dole Whip Mimosas. These cocktails effortlessly blend the refreshing essence of chilled pineapple juice, a velvety touch of real coconut milk, and the effervescence of sparkling wine. Prepare to be transported to a paradise of flavors with this simple yet sensational creation.
ingredients
- 1 cup pineapple juice
- ⅓ cup refrigerated coconut milk, NOT canned
- 1 bottle (750 ml) sparkling wine (we love this paired with Nicolas Feuillatte Réserve or Luc Belaire Rare Luxe )
- Whipped topping, for garnish
- Pineapple wedges, for garnish
instructions
- If time permits, chill 6 champagne flutes or glasses in the freezer for 10 minutes.

Cheers!
