Tropical Cocktails tend to be sweeter in nature and tend to be over-the-top in terms of bright colors and crazy fruits. Many great tropical cocktails contain a dark or light rum and often mix with orange juice or pineapple juice.
There is a good chance a coconut flavored rum or cream will be included in a tropical cocktail along with other ingredients that would remind the drinker of hawaiian beaches and soft sand. A few great examples of tropical cocktails include: Bahama Mama, Captain Hook and Blue Hawaiian. For this wiki, Cuban cocktails will likely fall into this category, including the famous Mojito and Daiquiri.
