Method
How to make a Coconut Elixir

Serves 1 · Takes 3 minutes
Pour vodka, Midori and Malibu into a shaker with ice
Shake well then strain into a chilled cocktail glass
Pour in a drizzle of mint syrup and serve
~ Mint syrup is easy to make yourself. Optionally you can make the drink sweet and top it up with lemonade. Or optionally you can make it sour by adding some lemon or lime juice (though I have not tried this). ~
