Baie Lazare Sunset

No ratings yet

Inspired by one of the most beautiful bays on Mahé, Baie Lazare Sunset captures the warm colours of a tropical evening in the Seychelles. Fresh pineapple, smooth white rum and the subtle vanilla notes of Licor 43 are complemented by a delicate touch of coconut, while a floating layer of unsweetened cranberry juice creates a stunning sunset effect. Light, refreshing and easy to drink, it's the perfect cocktail for warm summer evenings.

Ingrediënten

30 ml White Rum Preferred brand: Takamaka
20 ml Licor 43
15 ml Coconut Rum
70 ml Pineapple Juice
50 ml Cranberry Juice unsweetened

185 ml Total Yield

Method

Fill a shaker with ice.
Add the white rum, Licor 43, Malibu, pineapple juice and lime juice.
Shake well until thoroughly chilled.
Fill a chilled longdrink glass with fresh ice and strain the cocktail over the ice.

For the Layered Sunset Version:

Using a small measuring cup for better control, slowly pour 50–60 ml unsweetened cranberry juice over the back of a bar spoon or gently over the ice cubes.
The cranberry will float naturally, creating the warm colours of a tropical sunset.

For the best visual presentation, serve unstirred and allow guests to admire the layered colours before gently mixing the cocktail.

Stir gently before drinking to blend the flavours. The amount of cranberry juice can be adjusted to taste. A smaller top-up produces a milder tartness, while a larger layer creates a more pronounced sunset effect and a fresher finish.

Garnish: A thin lime wheel or a small pineapple wedge.

Notities

History:

Baie Lazare is one of the most picturesque bays on the southwest coast of Mahé, Seychelles. Surrounded by lush tropical hills and calm turquoise waters, it has long been known as a place where spectacular sunsets mark the end of another island day.

This cocktail was created as a tribute to that atmosphere. Rather than recreating an existing tropical classic, the aim was to capture the relaxed elegance of an evening overlooking Baie Lazare. The floating cranberry layer represents the deep red glow of the setting sun, while the tropical flavours reflect the warmth and hospitality of the Seychelles.

Origin:
Created in The Netherlands (2026) as part of the Seychelles Collection and inspired by memories of Baie Lazare on Mahé.

Designed as the lighter companion to Plantation Club Réserve, together celebrating both the natural beauty and timeless elegance of the Seychelles.
