Notes from the Bar

Heads up: We may earn a small commission on products we’ve linked here. We only recommend the real-deal favorites from our kitchen.

Sweetened Cream of Coconut

This is key. Use a product like Coco Real. Canned coconut cream won’t blend the same and changes the balance.

Glassware Swap

Coupe for a more elevated holiday feel.
Rocks glass over ice for casual sipping.

Balance Tip

If you want it a little brighter, add an extra ¼ oz lime juice.
If you want it a touch richer, a tiny splash more cream of coconut does the trick.

Holiday Garnish

Sugared cranberries or a tiny sprig of rosemary lean extra seasonal, but totally optional.

Batch for 6

Combine 12 oz blanco tequila, 6 oz sweetened cream of coconut, 6 oz fresh lime juice, 3 oz Cointreau (or triple sec), and a small pinch of salt in a pitcher. Stir or whisk well, then chill until ready to serve. Shake each portion with ice before pouring into a sugar-rimmed coupe and garnish as desired.

Because every drink deserves a beautiful moment.

How We Really Plan Our Date Night Menus

Last week I was sick. Nothing dramatic — just that slow, foggy kind of under-the-weather that dulls your appetite and makes everything feel like too much. So that became the menu. And the moment we sat down to eat it, I thought — this is why we do it this way.
