The Chi Chi

Why you are pouring this tonight

A Pina Colada with vodka instead of rum. Lighter, cleaner, more obviously a summer-by-the-pool drink. The coconut cream does the heavy lifting; the vodka gets out of the way.

What changes from the Pina Colada

Rum out, vodka in. Everything else stays.

What to pour it alongside

Poolside food: prawn cocktails, tropical fruit salads, fish tacos.
