Batch it: Multiply the recipe by 6–8 and mix it in a large pitcher or drink dispenser for parties. Add a handful of frozen fruit to keep it cold without watering it down.
Add a floater: A ½ oz float of dark rum on top takes the flavor—and the buzz—to the next level.
Pair it: Great with spicy appetizers (like jalapeño poppers or wings), or fruity desserts like key lime pie, tropical cupcakes, or boozy gummies.
