In this piece, we’ve put together three cocktails, that you’d ordinarily have to pay an arm and a leg for. The bars are closed this time because of the ongoing pandemic so this list should come in very handy, don’t you say?
Read below to learn how to make these cocktails in very few, uncomplicated steps.
Coconut margarita
With Coconut Margaritas, you can almost feel the sea breeze and rustle of coconut tree leaves behind you. This snow-white drink is a cool, refreshing tropical cocktail. They taste like a cross between a Margarita and Pina Coladas; both classic cocktails.
Ingredients
-1 (15-ounce) can cream of Coconut
-1 cup tequila
-1/2 cup lime juice
-1/4 cup Cointreau
-1/2 cup toasted coconut
How to prepare
Combine the Cream of Coconut, tequila, ice, lime juice, Cointreau, and 1 spoonful of toasted coconut shavings in a blender and blend till smooth.
Rub a lime wedge on your glasses. Then pour the remaining coconut shavings on the small flat plate and rim the edge of your glasses with it. Pour your blended mix into the glasses and voila! your coconut margaritas are ready.
