What is the bartender tip for a Marajó?
Coconut water, not milk or coconut milk: the drink stays lighter and the jambu's buzz comes through clearer. It's also not the brand's serve (coconut with green grape). Beerita Elétrica is the point — a London Dry loses the tingle. The 5 ml of syrup just rounds it out; coconut water already has a light sweetness. The 15 ml of lime cuts without turning it into a sour. Stir the gin, syrup, and lime over ice before the coconut water; after that, just to combine. Slap the mint, don't muddle it in the glass. The catalog's Tudo Efêmero is the short sour with the same gin; here the highball is lengthened with coconut.
