Gather equipment—a cocktail shaker and a measuring jigger. In the shaker, pour white rum, dragon fruit syrup, fresh pineapple juice, cream of coconut, and lime juice.

Fill shaker with ice, secure the lid, and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds.

Strain the chilled mixture over fresh ice cubes in a highball or hurricane glass.

Garnish with a pineapple wedge and consider adding a lime wheel for extra flair.

For a frozen version, blend the mixture with additional ice.
