If you’ve never made a Bay Breeze before, you’ll love how easy it is to make! Bay Breeze is similar to cranberry vodka with the added tropical flavor of pineapple juice. This drink is sometimes called Hawaiian Sea Breeze or Downster.
More juice-based cocktails: Cape Cod, Tequila Sunrise, Screwdriver, Salty Dog, Paloma, Bloody Mary.
Ingredients in Gulf Breeze
Vodka – Choose a high-quality, mid-priced vodka. Cranberry Juice – Choose pure cranberry juice, although a cranberry juice cocktail works too. Pineapple Juice – Fresh juice is great, canned juice also works well for this recipe. Lime – Use a lime wheel or wedge to decorate.
What is the best glassware to serve Bay Breeze? A great option for serving this drink is a large mug or a tall glass of the same size. I used my favorite old glasses (similar style here).
