Combine ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, add 1.5 oz ricardo rum, 0.5 oz vodka, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, 1.0 oz coconut cream, 0.5 oz heavy cream, and 0.5 oz vanilla agave syrup.

Add ice and dry shake
Add a handful of ice (about 4-6 medium cubes) to the shaker. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 10 seconds to chill and dilute slightly.

Wet shake for texture
Strain out the ice, then add fresh ice to the shaker and shake again vigorously for 12-15 seconds. This second shake further chills and creates a silky, aerated texture from the creams.

Prepare garnish
Discard ice/water from the chilled glass. Rim the edge (optional) by moistening with a lime wedge and dipping lightly into grated toasted coconut to adhere a thin coconut rim.

Strain and serve
Double-strain the cocktail into the chilled glass using a Hawthorne and a fine mesh strainer to catch any small ice chips or coconut bits.

Finish
Float a lime wheel on the surface and sprinkle about 1 tsp of grated toasted coconut over the top for aroma and presentation. Serve immediately.
