Drink of the Day: Coco Poco

Here’s one you may want to be careful with. Served chilled in a cocktail glass, this all-liquor combination will go down smoother than you think and will catch many off-guard. A great combination of Tia Maria, vodka, and coconut rum, you will be asking yourself, “Who needs mixes involved in a cocktail?” A great after-dinner, (or before-dinner cocktail for that matter), this will surprise you with it’s complexity and utter smoothness. You may want to keep it in line and watch your consumption. This will surely test your will.

A perfect relaxer for a Saturday night. Be sure to share this with your friends. There is no doubt they will thank you for it. Have a great weekend!
