Ingredients
Scale
- 2 oz blanco tequila
- 1 oz lime juice, fresh squeezed
- 1 oz cream of coconut (like Coco Lopez)
- 0.5 oz orange liqueur (Triple Sec or Cointreau)
- 1 oz coconut milk (full fat, canned)
- Ice
- For Garnish: Lime wheel and shredded coconut
Instructions
- Chill your margarita glass or coupe.
- Combine the tequila, lime juice, cream of coconut, orange liqueur, and coconut milk in a cocktail shaker.
- Fill the shaker with ice.
- Shake vigorously until the shaker is very cold, about 20 seconds.
- Strain the mixture into your chilled glass.
- Garnish with a lime wheel and a sprinkle of shredded coconut on the rim or surface of the drink.
Notes
- For a pitcher serving 6, multiply all liquid ingredients by 3 and mix them in a large pitcher with ice just before serving.
- If you prefer a slightly thinner texture, use light coconut milk instead of full-fat.
- For a snowy rim, moisten the rim of the glass with lime juice and dip it into fine shredded coconut before pouring the drink.
