Engagement Barcardi Mango Colada

There is such a thing as too much champagne.  There.  I have said it.  Uttered the words that I thought that I would never say.

I always thought that there could not possibly be such a thing as too much champagne, but there is.  Ed asked me to marry him on our recent trip to Brittany.  I was delighted to say yes! We came back home and the champagne started, families and friends all offered glass after glass of fizz and I am afraid to say that champagne fatigue set in.  I am convinced this is only temporary.  I adore champagne.

I am on a coconut kick at the moment and for the last visitors Ed popped to the supermarket (photos here) and returned with Bacardi, coconut water, limes, the biggest mango I have ever seen (which sadly disappointed), some coriander and a red chilli to turn into coconut based cocktails.

Bacardi Cocktail Ingredients

Coconut water is one of my favourite ingredients at the moment – subtely coconutty and very refreshing.

My cocktail was based on a Piña Colada – swapping mango for the pineapple and using coconut water in place of the cream.  For a little added interest and a kick I added a few leaves of coriander and the tip of a red chilli.

    Wow, these look amazing! I must admit I never like champagne quite as much as I feel I really should, but I am a big coconut fan so these are perfect for me.

      I am on a coconut kick at the moment. Fresh, water, juice, milk or cream – bring it on.

    Congratulations!! Woop! And yes, there is such a thing as too much champagne. I don’t like much more than a couple of glasses before prefering to move on to the wine or cocktails instead. And this looks yummy.
