Notes

  • Do not replace Coco Lopez!  No other will provide the right coconut flavor.
  • Shake really well prior to using
  • Keep the mixture refrigerated for no more than a month.  
  • We serve it in a shot glass, but if it not very strong, then, you can serve a nice glass
  • Add a little nutmeg to garnish.  Very little, it is a very strong flavor.
  • ENJOY!
