It’s time to sway your hips, tone your muscles and break a sweat, Hawaiian style. If you are ready to get out of your comfort zone, learn a little hula and burn calories, this workout is for you!

For those of you who don’t want to take a break from your fitness regime while on vacation, Turtle Bay has a state-of-the-art gym, gorgeous running trails and live fitness classes. One class in particular, Hiva Fitness, involves some hula.

Turtle Bay Resort is the only resort on the island of O’ahu, Hawaii, where you can enjoy miles and miles of beaches. Our 850 acres of tropical paradise are home to five miles of unspoiled and secluded shoreline. From right outside your hotel room, to a gorgeous one mile stroll, there’s a beach waiting for you to dive into, explore and enjoy some well deserved vitamin sea.

So what are you waiting for?  Grab your snorkeling mask, beach towel and GoPro and get ready to explore the beautiful beaches of Turtle Bay. (Some of which you may even have all to yourself!)

If you want to enjoy fruit like a local, you gotta enjoy some lilikoi or passion fruit.

The sweet, yet tangy exotic fruit, will awaken your taste buds and is sure to delight.

It’s also packed with antioxidants, flavonoids, vitamin A, vitamin C, riboflavin, niacin, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, copper, fiber, and protein.

So what are you waiting for? Bring some passion to your cup with our Lilikoi Daiquiri recipe.

Ingredients:
- 1 ½ shots Naked Turtle Rum
- 1 shot lilikoi puree
- 2 oz. Sweet & Sour
- A dash of rock candy liquid sugar
- 2 scoops of ice

Combine all the ingredients into a blender and mix until smooth.
Pour into your favorite glass, garnish with a cherry and lime, sip and smile.

Don’t have lilikoi or passion fruit? Substitute the puree of your favorite fruit like strawberries or watermelon to create your own delicious daiquiri at home.
