There’s something magical about sipping a refreshing cocktail with your toes in the sand and the ocean breeze in the air. At Park Place Deli & Liquor, just steps from the Hotel del Coronado, we make it easy to bring the bar to the beach with everything you need to mix up something delicious.
Whether you're packing a cooler for a sunny afternoon or setting up for golden hour on the sand, here are some easy, flavorful cocktail ideas you can make with ingredients available right here at Park Place.
- Sparkling mineral water (Topo Chico recommended) Pour 2 oz of tequila over ice in a tumbler or to-go cup, squeeze in half a lime, and top with sparkling mineral water. Light, citrusy, and ultra-refreshing — Ranch Water is perfect for Coronado’s beach days.
In a shaker or large cup, combine 2 oz rum, 2 oz pineapple juice, 1 oz orange juice, and a splash of grenadine. Shake or stir well, pour over ice, and garnish with lime. It’s like a beach vacation in a cup.
Fill a cup with ice, add 2 oz tequila and 4 oz orange juice. Slowly pour in a splash of grenadine — it’ll sink and create a stunning sunrise effect. No shaking needed. It’s low-effort, high-reward, and great for golden hour by the waves.
- Fresh watermelon chunks or juice
- Sparkling water or club soda
Muddle watermelon with vodka in a shaker, then strain over ice and top with sparkling water. Add fresh mint for extra beachy flair. It’s hydrating, slightly sweet, and very sessionable for long beach hangs.
Shake 1.5 oz coconut rum with 1 oz lime juice and 3 oz coconut water. Serve over crushed ice. It’s refreshing, not too sweet, and perfect for chilling under an umbrella.
