About Coupe Glasses
Coupe glasses, with their wide, shallow bowls, are designed to enhance the drinking experience by allowing more surface area exposure. This design intensifies both aroma and flavor by encouraging volatile compounds to rise more freely, which enhances the bouquet of aromatic cocktails or champagnes. The open shape also makes the drink more approachable for tasting since the aroma is more accessible to the nose.

Coconut Sugar
Coconut Sugar Health Benefits
Coconut sugar offers certain health-related advantages over standard refined sugar. One of its key benefits is its lower glycemic index (GI), rated at about 35–36 compared to roughly 60 for white sugar. This lower GI means it causes a slower, more moderate rise in blood sugar, which can be helpful for people monitoring blood glucose levels.
However the addition of coconut sugar in this recipe is very minimal— really just a sprinkle for garnish.

Coconut Lime Tini Recipe
Equipment:
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 3 oz Nonalcoholic Rum
- 2 oz Thai Kitchen Coconut Milk (Unsweetened)
- 1 oz Freshly Squeezed Lime Juice (1 ¼ – 1 ½ limes)
- ½ oz Agave Nectar
Instructions
Preparation
- Squeeze Juice lime (approx 1 ½ limes).
Mix the Main Ingredients
- Add Nonalcoholic Rum, coconut milk, lime juice and agave into shaker with ice.
- Shake well and pour into cocktail glass.
Garnish
- Sprinkle of coconut sugar.
- Garnish with dried lime slice.
Notes:
- We use a sprinkle of coconut sugar as a garnish. The sugar is subtle but it’s intended to balance the tartness of the lime.
- You could use any garnish you like. For example, originally we tested this recipe using nutmeg—which was excellent. But it ultimately reminded us too much of eggnog, so we went with coconut sugar.
- Try some garnish options and let us know what you think works best.
