Cocktail

Method

Cocktail

1

Chill glass

Place a coupe or rocks glass in the freezer or fill it with ice water to chill while you prepare the cocktail (about 5 minutes).

2

Shake

Add blanco tequila, fresh lime juice, coconut water, blue Curaçao, agave syrup, and orange bitters to a cocktail shaker. Fill the shaker with regular ice (about 1 cup). Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the shaker is well chilled and slightly frosted.

3

Prepare glass

Discard ice/water from the chilled glass. Fill the serving glass with crushed ice.

4

Double strain & pour

Double-strain the shaken cocktail into the glass with crushed ice to remove small ice shards and any pulp, allowing the liquid to settle over the crushed ice. Pour slowly so the blue Curaçao creates a pale ocean-blue gradient with the coconut and lime.

5

Garnish

Float a lime wheel on top and sprinkle toasted coconut flakes around the rim or on the ice (optional).

6

Serve

Serve immediately with a short straw. Encourage the drinker to stir gently to combine the layers as they sip.
