Cocktail Base

Prepare ingredients
Measure and pour 2 oz Don Q rum, 1 oz fresh lime juice, 1 oz coconut cream, and 0.5 oz agave syrup into a cocktail shaker.

Dry shake
If you prefer a slightly frothy texture, seal the shaker and shake vigorously for 10 seconds without ice to emulsify the coconut cream with the lime and agave.

Shake with ice
Add ice (about 1 cup) to the shaker, re-seal, and shake hard for 12–15 seconds until the outside of the shaker is very cold.
