"Cool As A Coconut | Crafted Pour"

"Growing up, me and my siblings spent our April vacations with our grandparents in Florida. The most exciting thing about our trips were the coconut trees. I mean it. We were obsessed. We’d walk the streets everyday checking if a coconut had dropped, or try and shake the trees with our skinny tanned arms. White sand beaches? Okay. Being spoiled for a week by our Grandfather? That’s was nice. But finally getting our hands on a coconut? Nothing more thrilling. We’d run it home to said Grandfather, a gold-toothed, cigar-chewing ex-hockey player, and he’d indulge us. He’d work his pocket knife thru the thick wiry outer shell, and break open the inner ‘nut’ in the kitchen, scraping off little pieces of meat for us to try. Every time I reach for Coco Real or coconut water or this sparkling coconut rum by Dented Brick Distillery as a cocktail ingredient, I think of these memories—its a direct explanation of my coconut favoritism.
