This month’s theme for Mixology Monday is Flores de Mayo – Floral Cocktails. A big mahalo to Dave at The Barman Cometh for hosting this month’s MxMo.
Our beloved singer bartender, Cory Nomura, invented this simple cocktail that features Kai Vodka’s newest flavor, Coconut Pandan. Pandan is one of my favorite scents, which can be found flavoring all those tasty green South-east Asian desserts. Also known as screwpine, it has a characteristic grassy aroma with floral and nutty overtones. It perfectly compliments coconut and coconut milk.

We’ve already gone through a whole bottle of Kai’s Coconut Pandan Vodka at Wang Chung’s. The coconut pandan infused vodka leaves a unique floral and nutty aftertaste, as it softens the bite of the woodsy whiskey with a flavor reminiscent of Amaretto without the heavy sweetness.
Yay! Pandan and it doesn’t smell.. Well, -like feet! Try this cocktail though.. It’s quite delicious. Thanks to Dr Ron, Justin and Tyler (to name a few) for the feedback!

coconut pandan vodka is my new favorite drink of choice thanks to you! … and as far as I know can only be found at Wang’s! This mix by Cory sounds amazing, can’t wait to come in and give it a try!
