Coconut Mango-tini

by Judy

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

Have you noticed all the different flavored vodkas in the stores now?  I’ve bought several, but still seem to prefer using fresh fruit or juice to get the flavor I want.  But I’m always willing to try a new one, and my bar is stocked with several different flavored vodkas.  One of those flavors is mango, so I thought I’d make you all a Coconut Mango-tini with mango flavored vodka today for your Hump Day Happy Hour.

Coconut Mango-tini

I started with Absolute mango vodka and Malibu coconut rum (I suppose you could use a coconut flavored vodka if you’d like, I just don’t have that). Then I added a bit of pineapple juice to soften the liquor edge.  It was pretty good, but not quite perfect yet.  So on to the second try, which I really liked much better, I added some cream of coconut to the mix.  I’ve never bought a can of cream of coconut before but picked one up a few weeks ago with the thought of making something with it.  I was anticipating it to be like coconut milk but thicker.  It’s not.  At least the brand I bought, Roland, wasn’t.  I would describe it more of a coconut simple syrup.  Which, actually, was just what I thought this drink needed.   Apparently this is what Pina Coladas are made out of.  It’s pretty sweet so a little goes a long way in my opinion, but added just the right touch to this Coconut Mango martini.

Of course I had to take a sample to my resident taste tester, Joyce, and she confirmed…It’s a keeper!
