Cocktail Recipe: »Snowstorm Margarita«

Ingredients: 

• 1/3 cup unsweetened coconut milk
• 1-2 tsp honey or granulated sugarm adding more or less to taste
• 2 ounces silver tequila
• 1/2 ounce coconut rum
• 1/2 orange liquor
• juice of 1/2 lime
• fresh mint, for serving
• sugared blueberries, for serving

Preparation: 

1. Bring the coconut milk and sugar to a simmer over medium heat in a small saucepan. Simmer 1 minute, then remove from the heat and let cool. To quickly chill, add a couple ice cubes.
2. Fill a cocktail glass with ice.
3. In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, coconut rum, orange liquor, lime juice, and coconut milk. Shake to mix. Strain into your prepared glass. Top with sugared cranberries and mint.

Recipe notes: 

If you are using canned coconut milk (which I prefer), when you pour it over ice it will curdle up a bit if not stirred. It‘s still delicious, but you need to give it a stir before drinking to mix everything around again. And if you make the pitcher margarita, just be sure to give the batch a good stirring before you serve. The coconut milk can separate f rom the liquors as it chills.
