This is beautiful. Really beautiful in a rich, creamy, totally tropical delight.
A few ingredients and you’re well on your way to whipping up a delight.
I’ve gone for fresh ingredients here – soursop, hand peeled; fresh coconut and lime juice but you could very well make your own cocktail with store-bought ones – cans of soursop juice, some ‘Malibu’ or other coconut liqueur.
If you don’t have any Disaronno, add a drop or two of almond extract to your mix.
Either way, finish with a squeeze of fresh lime juice.

[wpurp-searchable-recipe]Friday Cocktails: Soursop with Coconut & Cardamom – – – [/wpurp-searchable-recipe]
I have all these ingredients except the cardamon at home right now. I’m trying this tomorrow!
Yay, let me know how it goes. You could use and a mix of cinnamon and nutmeg. Or a pinch of Chinese five-spice (Supreme brand has them). Ginger would also be nice. Me thinks. I’m going to be making more…
We don’t have cardamom here in Uyo. Any substitute?
Aww. I would recommend a mix of cinnamon and nutmeg. Or a pinch of Chinese five-spice (Supreme brand has them). Ginger would also be lovely.
Okay. Noted.
