Yield 2 servings

🥄 Ingredients

  • ½ cup shredded coconut, (for rimming glass)
  • 3 ounces blanco tequila
  • 2 ounces cream of coconut, (plus more for rimming glass)
  • 1 ½ ounces triple sec
  • 1 ½ ounces lime juice, (about 2 limes)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Toast the shredded coconut in a small skillet over high medium-heat, stirring constantly, until lightly browned. The coconut shreds will toast very quickly, about 3-4 minutes. Set aside on a plate in a single layer to cool completely.

  2. In a cocktail shaker, add the tequila, cream of coconut, triple sec, and lime juice. Cover and shake to combine.

  3. Prepare the glasses by rimming them with a little bit of additional cream of coconut. Roll the rims of the glasses over the toasted coconut so they stick.

  4. Strain the coconut margarita into the prepared glasses and serve.
