You Should Definitely Order This Cocktail Served In A Coconut Monkey Head
Something about summer has a lot of urbanites yearning for the South Pacific at the moment. There are plenty of ways to get into the tropical vibe without a lengthy flight. New York City's Social Drink and Food, a Midtown rooftop bar, has really leaned into the beachy cocktail vibe this summer, and we're particularly drawn to this rum-based cocktail served in a coconut carved into the shape of a monkey head.
Sure, the drink is guaranteed to draw attention, but honestly that's the point. This isn't a subtle drink. Orange and pineapple juices are classic beach cocktail bases, and nothing gets an island feel going like rum. (With a group? You could opt for the Tropical Triple, served in a hollowed-out pineapple for easy sharing.)
In case you can't make it to New York City for this cocktail, the bar team has graciously shared the recipe. Bookmark it; it could come in handy in mid-February.
