Malibu Strawberry Rum Liqueur 700ml

Malibu built its name on Caribbean rum blended with coconut, a combination that has been shorthand for holiday drinking since the late 1970s. This edition keeps that base and adds ripe strawberry, giving the familiar bottle a summer fruit twist.

It pours a soft pink gold and smells of sweet, jammy strawberry with toasted coconut sitting just behind. The palate leads with juicy strawberry, then the creamy coconut arrives underneath and carries through to a clean, gently sweet finish. It reads as fruity and refreshing rather than spirit forward.

Easy to use behind the bar: top it with lemonade or soda over plenty of ice, blend it into a strawberry daiquiri or piña colada, or pour it over vanilla ice cream. Serve well chilled.
