  • ½ oz. / 15 ml. coconut liqueur (quality one)

  • ½ oz. / 15 ml. pineapple distillate (Banhez)

METHOD
add all ingredients to mixing glass / stir with ice until chilled / strain into a glass over your choice of large format ice / garnish with dehydrated pineapple wheel (I only had pineapple fronds)

ABOUT
A Negroni riff inspired by a Piña Colada?! Or is it a Piña Colada riff inspired by a Negroni? Or is it simply just a great cocktail? I hope I don’t anger too many people by posting two “Negronis” this weekend that aren’t traditional. BUT, as soon as I saw Jordan Hughes (@highproofpreacher) share this beauty, I had to make it. It’s what happens when a beach bar and an aperitivo hour fall in love. Cheers y’all!
