Coquito Colada

It’s #NationalCoquitoDay tomorrow so let’s get you prepared! #ad

What happens when you combine TWO of Puerto Rico’s most iconic cocktails? The Piña Colada is arguably Puerto Rico’s most famous contribution to the cocktail world. Created sometime during the 1950s, its exact origins are often debated. But we’d all be remiss if the infamous Coquito didn’t enter the conversation, which origin is ubiquitous with Puerto Rican culture - after all, there’s an entire DAY dedicated to this iconic drink. I think we can all agree the best version is made with Puerto Rico’s legendary rum, Ron del Barrilito.

Cheers y’all.

Near & Dear (Batched Recipe)

Here’s your new favorite “Freezer Door” cocktail.

Just wanted a quick second to feature my dude Joey Goetz of lastsaintchs. He’s doing us a favor by showing us how to make a batch of SIX bottles of liquid gold - aka a chocolate + coconut-fat washed Negroni. My god, this was so good.

“Coconut and Chocolate visit a classic Negroni in an updated take on everyone’s favorite gin cocktail.

We build our standard house negroni, add Cacao Nibs and Coconut Oil to fat wash and infuse the entire cocktail. Freeze it and then strain everything off. It give you a classic negroni backbone but with wonderful notes of coconut and chocolate to compliment.”

Cheers y’all!

Coconut Rested Rum Negroni

🥃 ➡️ 🥥

Today we’re resting a Negroni in a coconut… but not just any Negroni, this is a split-base rum Negroni using a Barbados rum ( + Jamaican rum ) to give us a funky but rounded flavor. If you’ve never had either of those rums, you’ll really want to get your hands on a bottle or sample to try. It’s unlike anything you’ve ever had and really puts this recipe together by bringing those tropical notes of coconut, banana and pineapple INSIDE a coconut 🤯

Stay tuned for Part II coming in a few days!

Coconut Bianco Negroni

This might be the most meta thing I’ve ever done…

🥥 Remember when we aged that rum Negroni in a coconut? Well, I hope y’all didn’t throw away that coconut meat soaked with the Negroni because it’s packed with flavor. So now that we’ve aged a Negroni in that coconut, we’re going to age the coconut in a Bianco Negroni - stay tuned for part 2!

Coconut Negroni Syrup

Oh, y’all thought I was done with that Negroni-aged coconut? 🥥

Well in an effort to reduce waste and get every single bit of flavor out of that rum-Negroni aged coconut, I decided to make a syrup out of it. It’s definitely more coconut forward but still has hints of that Jamaican rum and Campari - but the question is… what should I make out of it?? Drop your suggestions below and I’ll make it this week!

Cheers y’all.

The Queen is Dead

I wanted to follow the basic Boulevardier recipe, but create a tropical flair. The coconut-infused aperitif takes the bitter component and just rounds it out with a little sweetness and richness. The [Pimm's] replaces sweet vermouth, by pulling away some of those herbal notes, and replacing them with dried fruit flavors.
