Preparation
  1. Start by rimming your glass with crushed salted pretzels. Dip the rim into caramel sauce, allowing it to coat evenly. Roll the rim in the crushed pretzel crumbs until well coated.
  2. In a blender, combine white rum, coconut cream, heavy cream, fresh pineapple juice, and crushed ice. Blend until smooth.
  3. Pour the blended mixture into the prepared glass and drizzle with additional caramel sauce.
  4. Garnish with a pretzel stick. Serve immediately.

Notes

Chill the ingredients in advance for a more refreshing drink. Adjust sweetness by adding more caramel sauce or reducing coconut cream. Consider experimenting with different rim toppings like cookie crumbs.
