Piña Verde Cocktail
The Piña Verde (translates to Green Pineapple) is a herbal variation on the classic Piña Colada. The sweet pineapple and coconut tame the usually dominant Green Chartreuse, allowing the numerous herbs, spices and botanicals to be identified and appreciated.Created by Erick Castro whilst tending bar at Polite Provisions, San Diego. Erick's goal was to create a rich, berbaceous cocktail which, over several years of tweaking, resulted in this simple yet flavourful 4-ingredient cocktail.
Ingredients
- 45 ml Green Chartreuse 1.5 oz
- 45 ml Pineapple Juice 1.5 oz
- 22.5 ml Cream of Coconut 0.75 oz
- 15 ml Lime Juice 0.5 oz
Instructions
- Combine ingredients into your blender
