Garnish: 3 sprigs coriander

How to make:

MUDDLE first 3 ingredients in base of shaker. SHAKE all ingredients with ice and fine strain into ice-filled glass.

Review:

Extracting the juice from the stems and leaves of the coriander is key to both the colour and flavour of this fresh-tasting cocktail, inspired by some of the flavours of a Thai Green Curry - only without the chilli heat.

I didn’t have coconut sugar syrup, so I substituted some coconut cream that I had lying around and it was quite good! Made for an opaque light green drink with a creamy texture.
