Celebrate World Coconut Day with Coconut Collins

Celebrate World Coconut Day with a Coconut Collins made with Coco Lopez Real Cream of Coconut as our Drink of the Week.

While Coco Lopez is widely known for its use in Piña Coladas and frozen drinks, it can be used in craft cocktails such as a Coconut Mojito, Coconut Margarita, and Martinis.

“If you look at our cream ingredients you will notice that our first ingredient is coconut,” says general manager, Jose (Papo) Luis Suarez.

“All other creams list either sugar or list coconut juice or coconut milk (which is a combination of sugar, coconut, and water) to avoid putting sugar as the first ingredient.  We also use pure refined white sugar.  Our cream is not white like other brands, it’s off white to a brownish, dark cream color but amazingly as soon as you mix it with water (or ice) it turns immediately white with a rich coconut flavor.  Coco Lopez is so rich in flavor that when bartenders craft their cocktails there is no need to use a lot. Our cream can be used as a substitution of any sweetener without overpowering the other ingredients and the final desired flavor.”
