Method
Cocktail
Combine ingredients
Pour 2 oz vanilla vodka, 1 oz coconut rum, 1.5 oz coconut cream, 1 oz fresh key lime juice, and 0.5 oz simple syrup into a cocktail shaker.
Add ice and shake
Add about 1 cup of ice to the shaker, secure the lid, and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the outside of the shaker is frosty and the mixture is well chilled and slightly aerated.
Strain
Double-strain into the chilled cocktail glass using a Hawthorne or fine mesh strainer to remove ice shards for a silky texture. If you prefer it on the rocks, strain over fresh ice in an old-fashioned glass.
Garnish & Serve
Finish and garnish
Float a thin wheel or wedge of key lime on the surface or place it on the glass rim. Sprinkle the cocktail with a scant 1/4 tsp lime zest and, if desired, a pinch (about 1 tsp) of toasted coconut flakes for aroma and texture.
Serve immediately while cold. Adjust sweetness with additional simple syrup to taste before serving.
