Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In a shaker, combine the lime juice, pineapple juice, simple syrup, coconut purée, orange-flower water, rum and gin. Use an immersion blender to purée the mixture and give it volume.

  2. Step 2

    Add ice and the club soda to the shaker. Shake for 30 seconds, then strain into a tall, stemmed glass. Garnish with a wide twist of lime.

Tip
  • To make a simple syrup, combine equal parts sugar and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook until the sugar is dissolved. Let cool. The coconut purée, which is made by Culinary Traditions, is available at Amazon.com.

What is coconut puree? Can I buy it or do I have to make it from fresh coconut?

I don’t often come across coconut purée but I usually have cream of coconut, or can make it easily (1 can full fat coconut milk, 375g sugar, pinch of salt and a teaspoon of coconut extract). I use 1.5 oz of cream of coconut in place of the coconut purée and simple syrup. I also up the the rum and gin to 1oz each and use a Spanish style white rum like Flor de Cana 4 extra seco.
