The Big Chill is “a sophisticated, classic cocktail that has been around for decades.” The drink was created in 1963 by the bartender at the legendary King Cole Bar in New York City. It is a fruity drink now the most popular in Hawaii.
The name of the cocktail comes from its original ingredients: rum, pineapple and cranberry juice, apricot brandy, and orange juice. It was originally served on ice. If you order it now though, it will not come with ice or orange juice because apricot brandy is no longer used as an ingredient. It is served in cocktail glasses, garnished with pineapple pieces, and drunk chilled.
