How’s you hangover? I must be getting old, because New Year’s Eve caused me two days of recovery. Not fun. But I had fun celebrating 2021, leaving the horrendous 2020 in the rear mirror, wishing and hoping for some normalcy in the next twelve months. However, I’m ready for a cocktail! Something sweet and tropic. Something to make me forget about the cold rain outside, and about the headaches of the past year. Simple does it, like I prefer it. A tasty cocktail doesn’t have to be so difficult. This one only has three ingredients, plus some coconut flakes to make it look pretty, and to possibly nibble on. I love it.

What you’ll need:
- 2 oz Bacardi Coconut Rum
- 2 oz coconut milk (canned)
- 2 oz freshly squeezed orange juice
- coconut flakes
Add Bacardi, coconut milk and orange juice to a cocktail mixer with ice. Shake well. Garnish rim of glass with coconut flakes, add ice, then strain the ingredients of the shaker into the glass!
Cheers and Happy New Year!
