How to make:

SHAKE all ingredients with ice and fine strain into chilled glass.

Garnish:

Dust with freshly grated nutmeg

Comment:

A ridiculously simple party drink with three equal parts shaken to produce a pineapple and coconut cocktail fortified with rum and crowned with a foamy head. Off dry and fruity rather than sweet.

About:

Adapted from a cocktail promoted by Koko Kanu in 2017 consisting of just equal parts liqueur and pineapple juice.
