Steps:
- Fill a heavy, deep saucepan with at least 6 inches of oil. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until it registers 340°F on a deep-fry thermometer. SAUCE: Combine the jelly, mustard, and vinegar; whisk until smooth and chill until needed (this can be made 1 day in advance). BATTER: In a large bowl, combine the flour, coconut, baking powder, salt, cayenne pepper, and green onions. Whisk the ingredients together thoroughly and make a well in the center. Slowly pour the beer into the well, whisking from the inside to the outside until the mixture has the consistency of pancake batter. If it's not, thin it with a touch of water. Line a plate with paper towels and have ready. Fold the shrimp into the batter. Using 2 tablespoons, carefully scoop one batter-coated shrimp into one spoon, and with the other spoon, push the mixture into the hot oil (be careful not to splash the oil). For best results, fry no more than four beignets at a time. Using a slotted spoon, turn the beignets to cook 1 minute per side, until puffy and light brown all over. With a slotted spoon, remove the beignets from the oil and let drain on the prepared plate. To serve, season with salt and accompany with the sauce.

Steps:
- Stir together garlic, lime zest, soy sauce, and ¼ cup oil in a medium bowl. Add shrimp and toss to coat. Add ½ cup coconut and toss again to coat. Let sit while grill heats, at least 5 minutes and up to 30 minutes.
- Prepare a grill for high heat, lightly oil grate.
- Carefully arrange shrimp in an even layer on grate. Grill, carefully turning halfway through, until opaque and lightly charred, about 2 minutes. Some of the coconut will fall off in the process, and that's okay. Transfer to a serving platter.
- Grill peppers, turning occasionally and being careful not to let them fall through grate, until lightly charred all over, about 6 minutes. Transfer to platter with shrimp.
- Top shrimp and peppers with basil, drizzle with lime juice, and sprinkle with sea salt and more coconut.

Tips:
- Use fresh shrimp. Fresh shrimp will give your beignets the best flavor. If you're using frozen shrimp, be sure to thaw them completely before cooking.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your beignets tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use a deep fryer or large saucepan filled with oil to fry the beignets. The oil should be at least 3 inches deep. Use a candy thermometer to ensure that the oil is at the correct temperature (350°F).
- Fry the beignets in batches. Don't overcrowd the pot, or the beignets will not cook evenly.
- Drain the beignets on paper towels before serving. This will help to remove any excess oil.
- Serve the beignets hot with pepper jelly sauce. The pepper jelly sauce is a great complement to the sweet beignets.
