Anyone who knows me knows that I absolutely looove Vodka; Its
definitely my booze of choice. One of my favourite vodka brands is Ciroc (others
are Russian Standard and Ketel one) and I absolutely adore the coconut,
pineapple and peach flavours; I love them all but these three in particular are
amazing; sooooo good! Today’s recipe uses a whole cup (250ml) of the pineapple
flavour; yup one whole cup. I like my cocktails really strong but don’t be
scared you can always reduce the amount of vodka in it if you don’t like your
drinks yummy strong.
I recommend putting half a cup of vodka and then tasting it as you blend it and adjust it to your personal taste it. I almost don't want to call this a recipe because
it’s so easy. Really the hardest thing you will do here is make the coconut
syrup and that's pretty easy! The recipe for this coconut syrup is taken from
the The Food Charlatan. I adore her blog and regularly spend hours just drooling
over the recipes there.
Her recipe calls for corn syrup but corn syrup isn’t
readily where I live so I substituted with sugar syrup. All you do is add 1
tbsp of sugar and half a tbsp of water and heat in the microwave for 10 – 30
second increments till the sugar is completely melted; took about 50 seconds
in my microwave.
