Buko Pandan Collins

Filipino-inspired drinks have my ❤️🇵🇭

That’s why I’m so excited to work together with drinkspindrift to add two original N/A recipes to their new coffee-table recipe book called “Tastes of Home” - inspired by chefs/mixologists from around the country sharing their unique culinary traditions, recipes and stories. The best news is I’ll be giving away FIVE (5) of these books (check out the link in my stories for more info). #SpindriftPartner Now on to the recipe:

This recipe takes me back to the Philippines, the traditional pairing of coconut (or “buko” in Tagalog) and pandan (a sweet herb with notes of vanilla) are a match made in heaven for desserts. I remember my Lola (grandma) would make a non-alcoholic version using fresh coconuts, condensed milk and pandan jelly. This is my take on that as an elevated non-alcoholic drink.



 

ingredients:

  • 2 oz | 60 ml Unfiltered Coconut Water

  • ½ oz | 15 ml Pandan Syrup

  • ¾ oz | 22.5 ml Lime Juice

  • 1 Pinch Smoked Salt

  • Top with Spindrift Lime

  • Toasted Coconut (Garnish)

  • Lime Wheel (Garnish)

instructions:

Combine all ingredients except for Spindrift in a shaking tin with ice. Shake and strain into a highball glass filled with crushed or pebble ice. Top with Spindrift Mango Black Tea. Garnish with a mango fan. Serve and enjoy.
