Drunken SAMU-Rai

Day 263

Drunken SAMU-Rai

2.5 shots out of 5

It's Sunday!  There goes another crazy long weekend!  Yesterday was all sports, then dinner with the folks.  Today I did a photo shoot for family friends and then was able to relax and hang out with them.  All in all it was a good, long weekend.

I gave tonight's cocktail 2.5 shots out of 5.  I got this recipe from SAMU's brochure they sent me along with the case of their Thai Coconut Water.  My husband says that this is a pretty good cocktail.  He likes coconut water a lot more then I do.  I think that this cocktail would be a lot better if the ratios were a little different. If there was more sake and less coconut water in this cocktail, maybe a 2:1 ratio of sake vs. coconut water, then I think I'd like it a lot more.  The idea of using coconut water in cocktails interests me as I've never even considered it until SAMU contacted me.  I do look forward to trying more cocktails using it......as long as my husband doesn't sneak it all first.

Here is the recipe for a Drunken SAMU-Rai:

• 1 oz sake
• 3 oz SAMU Thai Coconut Water

In a shaker, add ice and all of the ingredients above.  Shake it up well and strain it into a martini glass.

Here is a photo of the end result:

Here's to my first cocktail using coconut water.  More to come!

Cheers!!
