Does Anybody Actually Like Getting Caught In the Rain?

.5 ounce Lyre’s White Cane
.5 ounce Ritual Rum
.5 ounce Toasted Coconut Syrup
2 ounces Pineapple Juice
1 ounce Lime Juice
2 ounces Water
.25 ounce 2:1 Simple Syrup
5 drops 1:10 Saline Solution
- Combine the first 7 ingredients, then pour the cocktail into 1.8 ounces of Chobani Toasted Coconut Greek Yogurt warmed to room temperature. Allow the mixture to curdle for 45-60 minutes, then pour the mixture through a strainer with a coffee filter and allow to drip down and filter in the fridge for 4-6 hours. Once it’s fully filtered, run the cocktail through the curd one additional time. When fully clarified, add .25 ounce of 2:1 simple syrup and reserve in the fridge. To serve, pour the cocktail over a large ice cube or cherry and guava flavored ice spheres, and add the saline solution. Serve.
