Makes 1

I’m not afraid to admit that I have a slight obsession with coconut. Anything and everything coconut I will eat, drink and probably marry. This coconut drink reminds me of enjoying a few sunny days by the beach, no cares in the world other than falling asleep under an umbrella. Is there anything more chill than that? Don’t think so!

Ingredients

  • ½ cup non-alcoholic gin
  • 1 tbsp coconut syrup
  • 1 tsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 tsp orange bitters
  • Handful of ice, plus more to serve
  • 1 piece dried coconut, to garnish (optional)
