Yesssss!!! Back when I worked at a local surgical center here on the coast of NC, one of my awesome co-workers (Summer Rose!) told me her mom won a contest in the late 1980s for creating a mixed drink with Malibu Rum. She named the cocktail after her… so you know I had to ask for the recipe!
I immediately went home and made it. MERCY!!!!
Delicious is a TOTAL understatement here, friends. 
Below is my original photograph from August 2013. I’ll never forget the wonderful evening after work sipping on this in my tiny back yard. Good times (thanks, Summer!).

Summer’s mom, Mrs. Jewel Hanson, won a full-on trip to the Bahamas for this winning cocktail. I MUST meet this woman one day!!! Thank you Mrs. Jewel, as well! 
Cheers!

Recipe created by Jewel Hanson for Malibu Rum, named after Summer Sunwall Martin
Summer’s mom knows how to make a great cocktail. It’s SO pretty and I bet it’s too easy to drink 🙂
Yes she does! Thanks Valerie, it was so good! 🙂
What a most awesome Cocktail. Thanks for this, works so well here in UK on a sat summers night BBQ. Looks pretty too….
Thanks so much, Jazz… cheers! 🙂
Wow this looks great! Can’t wait to try it!
Hey thanks for the recipe! Just out of curiosity how much pineapple and orange juice should I use?
Hey Alex, the recipe calls to add equal parts pineapple and orange juice after you add the rum and peach schnapps… so enough of each to fill your glass and then top with a splash of grenadine. Hope you enjoy! 🙂
Hi what kind kind of Malibu rum should I use?
Hi Cassie, Malibu coconut rum. Hope you enjoy! 🙂
Can you please use standard parts? not “1 shot (1-1/2 ounces)”
Hi Mitch, I used the exact recipe that was given to me and that is how I’ve always made it. Hope you enjoy it! 🙂
Mitch, it’s a shot or a jigger. I’m assuming you’re from another country and want the measurement? It’s 44ml.
