Summer days on Amelia Island can get pretty toasty, but luckily, we’ve got plenty of spots where you can cool down with a refreshing frozen cocktail. Here are our top picks for the best places to chill out and sip something frosty.
After a fun round of putt-putt at Gregor MacGregor Mini Links & Drinks, head to the covered patio and treat yourself to a delicious frozen drink. Whether you prefer your drink with a kick or without, they’ve got you covered. In honor of your day on the “mini” links, we recommend the John Daly—a refreshing blend of sweet tea, vodka, and lemonade, frozen to perfection. It’s the perfect way to wrap up your game.
Cantina Louie is famous for its tasty Mexican street food, but the real star on a hot Florida day is their Fro-Jo-Rita. This twist on the classic frozen margarita lets you customize your drink with flavors like peach, mango, raspberry, pomegranate, strawberry, or banana. It’s a fiesta in a glass and oh so tasty!
Nestled by the beach at The Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island, Coquina is an outdoor poolside restaurant that brings Spanish flair to your dining experience. For a true taste of the islands, order their Piña Colada, crafted with Cruzan Light Rum and Coconut Cream. Sip it while overlooking the ocean and let the tropical vibes take over. If you want to sit on the beach and enjoy a frozen cocktail, the seasonally opened Dune Bar is ready to take your order.
Sliders Seaside Grill offers a unique experience where you can enjoy your drink while sitting on a swing at the bar, all while listening to live music and taking in the ocean view. Their frozen cocktails are perfect companions to the coastal ambiance. Trust us, this is the place to be for a true beachside escape.
At The Surf, you can chill out (literally) with some delicious Peel & Eat Shrimp and a selection of frozen cocktails like Strawberry Daiquiris, Piña Coladas, or Margaritas. This laid-back spot embodies the easy-going beach life, making it a great place to unwind.
For a drink that’s as delightful to look at as it is to sip, order the Miami Vice at Sandbar Amelia Island. This colorful concoction is equal parts frozen Strawberry Daiquiri and Piña Colada, layered beautifully. Enjoy it while sitting outside with your toes in the sand, and you’ll understand what paradise truly feels like.
Head up to the rooftop bar at Salt Life Food Shack and take in the stunning ocean views while enjoying a Bushwhacker. This decadent frozen treat blends Bacardi Black Rum with Kahlua Cream and a hint of Coconut Rum, mixed with cream and chocolate. It’s a dessert and a drink all in one!
