Notes

Pro Tips

  • Coconut consistency: Use finely shredded or toasted coconut for a unique rim texture and added flavor.
  • Sour mix substitute: Freshly squeeze lime and lemon juice with a splash of simple syrup for a fresher taste.
  • Chill the glass: Place the prepared glass in the freezer while mixing the cocktail to keep it icy cold.
