Ingredients

  • 5 blackberries
  • 2 oz 1800 Tequila Coconut
  • 1.5 oz coconut water
  • 2/3 oz lime juice
  • 0.5 oz simple syrup
  • 3 large basil leaves ripped in half

Instructions

  • In a cocktail shaker, muddle the blackberries until they release their juices and create a rich, dark base.
  • Add the 1800 Tequila Coconut, coconut water, lime juice, simple syrup, and torn basil leaves to the shaker.
  • Add a handful of small ice cubes to the shaker and shake vigorously to mix and chill the ingredients.
  • Without straining, pour the entire contents of the shaker into a Pilsner glass, allowing the muddled blackberries and basil to remain in the drink.
  • Top the cocktail with crushed ice to fill the glass and create a frosty finish.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy your Beetlejuice cocktail.

Notes

Pro Tips
  • For a more intense blackberry flavor, you can muddle additional blackberries or add a splash of blackberry liqueur.
  • Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less simple syrup according to your taste.
  • To enhance the tropical coconut flavor, consider garnishing with a toasted coconut rim or a slice of fresh coconut.
  • Serve in a chilled glass to keep the drink cool and refreshing for longer.
