From Southern Living magazine, April 2011. I've not tried this recipe, but it sounds really good. NOTE: This recipe has quite a bit of sugar in it, so for my family, I would personally experiment with it using Splenda to cut the sugar for a diabetic dessert. I would also use gluten-free AP flour.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh and ripe coconut: The quality of your coconut will greatly impact the flavor of your cocktail. Look for coconuts that are heavy for their size and have a light brown husk. Avoid coconuts that are cracked or have mold.
  • Use a sharp knife or machete to cut open the coconut: Be careful when cutting open the coconut. Place the coconut on a stable surface and use a sharp knife or machete to cut off the top third of the coconut. You can also use a coconut opener to remove the husk and meat.
  • Grate the coconut meat: Once you have opened the coconut, grate the meat using a box grater or food processor. You can also use a blender to puree the coconut meat, but be sure to strain it through a cheesecloth to remove any large pieces.
  • Use fresh lime juice: Fresh lime juice is essential for a refreshing coconut tequila cocktail. Avoid using bottled lime juice, as it will not have the same flavor.
  • Chill your ingredients: Chilling your ingredients before making the cocktail will help to create a refreshing and flavorful drink. You can chill your coconut milk, tequila, and lime juice in the refrigerator or freezer for at least 30 minutes before using.
  • Serve immediately: Coconut tequila cocktails are best served immediately after they are made. The coconut milk and tequila will separate if the cocktail is allowed to sit for too long.

Conclusion:

Coconut tequila cocktails are a delicious and refreshing way to enjoy tequila. They are perfect for any occasion, from a casual get-together to a festive party. With just a few simple ingredients, you can easily make a delicious coconut tequila cocktail at home. So next time you're looking for a tropical cocktail to enjoy, give one of these recipes a try. You can also experiment with different flavors by adding other ingredients to your coconut tequila cocktail. For example, you could add pineapple juice, mango nectar, or grenadine. You could also garnish your cocktail with a lime wedge, a pineapple slice, or a cherry. No matter how you choose to make it, a coconut tequila cocktail is sure to be a hit with your friends and family.
