Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1.5 oz tequila
  • 1 oz lime juice
  • 1 oz Cointreau
  • 1 oz blue curaçao
  • Fresh mint sprig for garnish
  • Shredded coconut for rimming

Instructions

  • Spread shredded coconut on a small plate. Run a lime wedge along the rim of your glass, then dip the rim into the coconut, pressing gently to coat evenly. Set the glass aside.
  • Add tequila, lime juice, Cointreau, and blue curaçao to a cocktail shaker.
  • Fill the shaker with ice, secure the lid, and shake vigorously for 15–20 seconds to chill and combine the ingredients.
  • Pour the entire contents of the shaker, including ice, into the prepared glass.
  • Add a fresh mint sprig for a hint of green and serve immediately.

Notes

Pro Tips

  • Chill the Glass: Pre-chill your glass in the freezer for a few minutes before rimming for an extra frosty effect.
  • Adjust the Sweetness: For a touch of extra sweetness, add a splash of simple syrup or a dash of agave nectar.
  • Alternative Garnish: Add a slice of lime or edible glitter for extra holiday sparkle.
