There’s still plenty of cocktail time this summer. Aldi served up the taste of summer with pineapple mimosas, and Costco wasn’t far behind with their giant pre-mixed margaritas. If you’re like me and more partial to rum when you’re chilling out poolside, here’s the best way to round off the season.
Malibu rum cocktail pouches are made for the party!
Here Are the Specs on These Sippers
Each Malibu rum cocktail pouch comes equipped with a convenient spout for serving up all that sweetness to your guests. And since they’re squishy, it’s easy to toss pouches in the cooler (or a wine carrier!) and be on your way. Don’t let them fool you, though—these cocktails contain 60 ounces of the pre-mixed good stuff, which is roughly 1.75 liters. At 12.5% ABV, you can bet they deliver the boozy buzz you’re looking for this summer.
Unleash your inner mixologist with this coconut rum drink.
Choose from 4 Tropical Flavors
Even better than their convenience are their flavors! Take your pick from these:
- Blue Hawaiian: This flavor, inspired by traditional tiki drinks, infuses the brilliant tastes of all your favorite fruits, including pineapple, coconut, cherry and orange.
- Rum Punch: Mango, orange, pineapple, cranberry and coconut come together to bring the party to your taste buds in this boozy beverage.
- Daiquiri: This classic daiquiri combines lime and coconut for a timeless cocktail that can’t be beat.
- Pineapple Twist: While you expect the pineapple and coconut flavors by now, the twist in this pouch comes from tangy blackberry.
Every rum connoisseur should know these iconic rum drinks.

Guava Coconut Rum Cocktail
My beverage is so sensational it's like a taste of the tropics in a glass. The guava adds a touch of sweetness to this coconut drink. —Melanie Milhorat, New York, New York
Black-Eyed Susan
The Kentucky Derby has the mint julep; the Preakness has the black-eyed Susan. The drink is a sunny mix of vodka, rum, and pineapple and orange juices to toast your special events.—Taste of Home Test Kitchen
Pina Coladas
Velvety-smooth texture and a taste of the tropics are what this tropical drink delivers. The easy-to-make drink can be mixed and chilled ahead of time. When ready to serve, just blend for a creamy and delicious beverage. —Linda Schend, Kenosha, Wisconsin
Blueberry Mojitos
Blueberry and lime are two of my favorite flavors, so I added blueberries to my favorite mixed drink! This recipe can easily be doubled or tripled. To make simple syrup, combine 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water and cook over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved. Simple syrup will keep in the fridge for a week.—Michele Tungett, Rochester, Illinois
Passion Fruit Hurricanes
This is our Test Kitchen’s version of the famous Hurricane beverage that's so popular in New Orleans. —Taste of Home Test Kitchen, Greendale, Wisconsin
Cranberry Sparkler
The flavors of this refreshing cran-raspberry cocktail are great any time of year. In winter, the cranberry makes it a good fit for holiday parties; on a warm summer's night, the raspberry comes to the fore. It's a favorite for our girls' night! —Susan Stetzel, Gainesville, New York
Pineapple Rum Punch
I created this with my favorite Bahamian juices. I got the inspiration for it from other Bahama punches I have sampled. —Pamela Vitti Knowles, Henderson, North Carolina

Santa’s Orange-Kissed Cocktail
Refreshing but not overly sweet, this drink is a festive choice for Christmas get-togethers. Serve it during cocktail hour, at dinner or even for brunch in place of mimosas. —Claire Beattie, Toronto, Ontario
Maple Blackberry Mojito
This refreshing blackberry cocktail is how you take advantage of prime berry season during the summer months. I've also used other types of fruit, including raspberries, kiwi and strawberries. —Donna Noel, Gray, Maine
Peachy Keen Daiquiris
You won’t mind breaking out the blender for these frosty fruit drinks—they’re a breeze to whip up. If you don't have fresh, use frozen peaches. A dash of grenadine gives the golden daiquire a blush of red.—Joan Antonen, Arlington, South Dakota
Spiked Lemonade
Rum gives a tropical addition to this fabulous homemade lemonade. If you have vodka on hand, try that instead of the rum. —Susan Hein, Burlington, Wisconsin
Mai Tai
This party favorite has been around for quite some time. It's not overly fruity and features a good blend of sweet and sour. For a splash of color, garnish with strawberries and lime.—Taste of Home Test Kitchen, Greendale, Wisconsin

“A sunset in a glass” is how your guests might describe this two-tone cocktail. With or without the spiced rum, it makes a refreshing thirst-quencher for parties any time of year.—Marybeth Mank, Mesquite, Texas
Agua de Jamaica
This agua de jamaica recipe features an iced tea made from hibiscus—tart and deep red like cranberry juice. Add rum if you like. —Adan Franco, Milwaukee, Wisconsin
Hop, Skip and Go
Here's a different drink for a beer-drinking crowd. It gets a touch of sweetness from lemonade.
