Malibu But Better! Homemade Coconut Liqueur
Serious Mealtimes / Marcia Simmons
I’ve always been a coconut fan. When I was little my grandfather would hit a coconut twice with a hammer and then expertly split it in half over a bowl. The juice that flowed out was used for that night’s dinner but the coconut flesh was all mine. I got so greedy that he made up stories about how if I ate too much coconut my butt would get so itchy that I couldn’t sit down long enough to watch TV. (I looked this up later but it turns out it’s not true.)
Coconut rum always makes me a little sad because it never lives up to its promises. I want it to taste like a real coconut with rum. But what you usually get is a syrupy mess. It smells good so I cheer myself up with visions of a big fat coconut filled with rum only to be met with a syrupy mouthful of sugar and artificial flavors. I had almost given up on making coconut rum when I tried it myself. Yes! It turns out that it is possible to have a coconut rum that actually tastes like rum and real coconut.
