Pineapple-Coconut Punch

A blender-free, big-batch tiki punch that pairs rum and coconut water with frozen pineapple and dark cherries for a refreshing all-day sipper.

Based on the popular tiki drink known as a Painkiller, this big-batch punch requires no blending and is lightened with a bit of coconut water for a refreshing all-day cocktail. Either light or dark rum works well here, but a combination is preferable for a balanced cocktail that's bright with a slightly complex finish. Adding frozen pineapple and dark sweet cherries just before serving not only chills the drink, but infuses it with flavor (and can be a fun snack as you drink).
