At the same time, it is a versatile ingredient that can be combined with any component in the preparation of cocktails. First of all, you can make a banana chocolate cocktail with coconut. This drink does not contain alcohol, so it can be prepared even for children. The velvety frozen bananas, sweet Nutella and coconut milk combine perfectly to create an unusual taste.
Step 2
Combine frozen bananas, yogurt, Nutella, coconut milk, cinnamon, cardamom, ginger and cloves in a blender and beat on high speed until smooth. Serve the cocktail garnished with coconut flakes in tall glasses.
Step 3
For guests, you can prepare a refreshing cocktail of coconut with melon pulp. The cooling aromas of these fruits will help protect you from the heat and pleasantly relax.
Step 4
Place the melon pulp in a blender and whisk until puree. Place a colander lined with a double layer of cheesecloth over a bowl and squeeze the juice out of the puree. Then, pick up the ends of the gauze and squeeze to remove the remaining liquid.
Step 5
Measure out 1 1/2 cups of this juice and mix with coconut milk, liqueur, and lime juice in a small pitcher. Stir to combine all ingredients and refrigerate until cool. Serve the cocktail garnished with slices of fresh melon.
