💡 Tips & Notes

• Use canned coconut cream for a thick, rich texture — avoid coconut milk for this one.
• Chill your glass before serving to help keep the layers visible.
• For a frozen twist, blend all ingredients with ice instead of shaking.
• Want a mocktail version? Use coconut milk and skip the alcohol — it’s still delicious!
