3. Fill cocktail shaker with ice. Pour in simple syrup, coconut rum, and cream of coconut.
4. Shake for 20 seconds then strain into glass.
5. Top off drink with club soda and stir carefully. Adjust to taste with a squeeze of fresh lime juice if you like.
6. Garnish with a lime wheel and a sprig of mint. You can also add a dollop of coconut flakes on top! Makes 1 drink. |
