We happened to have a bird coupe available, which felt very fitting to serve this drink in. The Emerald Toucan is a delicious one made with an irresistible combination of liqueurs, tequila and sour lime juice.
We love the name of the drink, it sounds so . . . exotic! It's maybe not officially a tiki drink, but it's very close. We felt we needed to arrange a grass and flower backdrop to give this creation a natural habitat.
The drink tastes fantastic. Using Galliano to mix with is unusual but rewarding. Its sweet vanilla notes works so well mixed with the lime juice and the tequila.
