This was a labor of love 🇵🇭🫰🏽
In my ongoing quest to make my childhood Filipino desserts into a cocktail, may I present the Buko Pandan — a coconut/pandan clarified daiquiri variation topped with an ube-coconut foam. This was a love letter to my childhood growing up in the Philippines and I’m so glad I had the opportunity to share it with those who attended this Kamayan for @chswineandfood.
Note that the ube foam was a little trickier than I first intended, I wanted to make the foam float about the cocktail but had a hard time doing so without coagulation of the foam (since it was mostly dairy). Luckily, @kevin_kos and @jfdesfosses came to the rescue in the form of super foam which I incorporated into the iSi and it worked like a charm.
This was a fun (but labor intensive) drink to make so I included a single serving version below if you don’t feel like making 9L for your next event (unless you do, in which case, I included that batch recipe as well).
Big thanks to my friends at @campari_southcarolina for graciously donating product for this event!
Cheers y’all.
