Orange & Grey Coconut Cocktail with Vodka
Enjoy summer with this easy and refreshing cocktail blending coconut, vodka, and a hint of pineapple. A deliciously tropical sip!
I’m about to tell you two things about me that most people don’t know (unless you know me in person): 1) I hate the heat (particularly humidity) and 2) I don’t like coconut.
There are no exceptions to the first rule, however, there is one exception to the second – I like a tasty coconut cocktail.
For whatever reason, coconut is quite refreshing to me on a hot day. And now you see how the two connect, right?
When the weather gets warm, I’m looking for a delicious coconut flavored cocktail to keep me cool and keep my spirits up! This grey and orange coconut cocktail is that very drink.
This delicious summer cocktail recipe gives you a chance to try some of your favorite liquors (mine is Grey Goose vodka) and flavors all together in one drink.
So while you are sitting by the pool this summer, make sure that you have a book in one hand and one of these bad boys in the other.
Remember that making cocktails is both a science and an art, so don’t be afraid to get creative and have fun with your creations. Over time, you’ll develop your own signature cocktails and techniques!
Ingredients
- 1 ounce Grey Goose Vodka
- 1 ounce coconut juice with pulp
- 2 ounce pineapple coconut nectar
- 2 ounces Kinky Gold
- 1 orange peel
- 1 sprig of rosemary
After I made this beverage I realized you could probably substitute coconut vodka (Smirnoff and Ciroc have good ones) for the Grey Goose and coconut juice, saving yourself from having to buy the juice separately.
But I will leave that up to you!
This drink is great for when you’re feeling like something light and refreshing. This would be perfect either front porch sipping or poolside.
