Tropical Paradise Transport Cocktail

Nothing can whisk me away faster to a tropical isle than the combination of pineapple and coconut. One sip and I am transported to turquoise seas and cloudless aqua skies, lying on a hammock under shady palm trees with just a hint of a tropical breeze. This wonderful cocktail recipe originally came from bon appetit. Containing a few changes to make it a bit easier, I have eliminated 2 coconuts and making simple syrup. Coconut water is easy to find in your grocery store. The blue agave nectar is used in exact amounts to sub for the simple syrup. I hope you will enjoy this cocktail. Cheers
