This is a skippers take on a pina colada minus the pina. Smoke, spice, toasted coconut, fresh lime juice. This cocktail has Mirto Verde from Bresca Dorada, which is a liqueur made from the maceration of the leaves of Myrtle berry trees. This unique herbal liqueur has overtones of eucalyptus, black peppercorn, and gentian.

My style of cocktailing is familiar with a modern twist. I like to utilize ingredients that are mostly easy to get or make.

Editor's Note

Mezcal and Ancho Reyes Verde anchor this pineapple-free colada. Toasted coconut and Mirto Verde add a layer of herbal, smoky depth that redefines the tropical classic.
