Snappy Gourmet is turning ONE this week!! Can you believe it? I can’t! This last year has been a lot of fun and I have enjoyed getting to know so many of you, receiving your kind messages, and of course creating recipes that I hope you have enjoyed!
I feel like I’m JUST getting started and have so many more recipes I want to try and share with you all! Thank you for passing along my site and recipes to your friends and family! The site has grown more than I ever thought it would and I’m excited to see what this next year will bring!
I have lots of holiday and Christmas cookies coming up soon but before I start those, I thought I’d celebrate one year with a new dessert cocktail and ‘tini recipe! I thought about some kind of birthday caketini but ran across a recipe for a Better Than Sex pineapple coconut cake and thought it would be perfect to turn into a dessert cocktail.
So here is a fun recipe for a Better Than Sex Caketini! So there are lots of Better Than Sex Cakes and Better Than Sex desserts, but this drink is based on the popular pineapple coconut cake, this dessert cocktail has pineapple, coconut, vanilla, and Pinnacle Cake Vodka! If you’re wondering what to mix with cake vodka, here you go!
I’m always looking for some cake vodka recipes and cake vodka drinks, so knew this Better Than Sex Caketini would be the best! This pineapple and coconut cocktail is so fun!
Later this week, I have my FAVORITE chocolate chip cookie recipe. I debated about sharing it, but decided to not only share it, I’m going to show you over the next few weeks how you can use that one dough and turn it into multiple different kinds of cookies perfect for the holidays! If you’re not signed up to get my posts by EMAIL, now would be a good time so you don’t miss out.
There are a lot of variations of a Better Than Sex Cake, but the one I saw contains pineapple, coconut, French vanilla pudding, and whipped cream. Sounded like a great inspiration for a cocktail, don’t you think? And a great way to celebrate one year of my blog! Does the cake or drink live up to its name? Well, I’ll let you be the judge! :)
The ingredients in this drink are fairly simple. I ran across this So Delicious Coconut Milk Creamer and thought I’d give it a try in this drink. It worked out really well! If you can’t find it, you can try substituting your favorite coconut milk.
I also added some toasted coconut to the top of the drink but you could also line your glass rim with toasted coconut.
Cheers! Here’s to another year of Snappy Gourmet! Thanks for a great year!
Hope you enjoy this Better Than Sex Caketini (pineapple and coconut cocktail)!

I just had to click over from Pinterest to see this one. I’m so funny with alcoholic drinks. I don’t drink beer/lager or stout, but I do love spirits and this looks perfect. Cake vodka? I just can’t.
In fact, I really can’t. No such thing here *sulk* I might have to travel across the pond for this one though. Heaven!

Oh no, so sorry to hear you don’t have it there! Although I’m sure you have lots of fabulous things we don’t have here. :)

Could you make this as a big batch to serve in a container to a crowd or will it settle too much?
Lisa Huff says
I haven’t tried it but I don’t see why not. Just make sure you can mix it before serving and I’d add the toppings right before.
