Instructions
- Chill your margarita glass in the freezer for about 10 minutes.
- Optional: Rim the glass by rubbing a lime wedge around the rim, then dip it into coarse sugar or coconut flakes on a plate. Set aside.
- Squeeze fresh limes to obtain 1 oz (30 ml) of juice. Strain to remove seeds and pulp if desired.

- Add the freshly squeezed lime juice to the shaker.

Notes
Use fresh lime juice for best flavor. If coconut cream is too thick, stir or warm slightly before measuring. Shake vigorously for a velvety texture. Rimming the glass is optional but adds festive flair. Store mixed ingredients refrigerated up to 24 hours; add ice just before serving. Avoid reheating; serve chilled.
