I worked there. It’s something like 1 oz coco Lopez, 1 oz lime juice, 1 oz tequila. That’s what I was told by one of the bartenders. You could also play with the ratios.

Not far off! The important part is Coco Lopez specifically for the coconut cream and a bit of Demerara syrup. Don’t cheat yourself out of a whole drink’s worth of tequila, 1oz is too low. Lime stays as is, coco Lopez amount is equal to the tequila you use.

I’ve never been there or had it but I am so getting the stuff to make this.

Thanks. This makes so much more sense. I recall attempting the former ratios and ended up with 1.5 teq 1.5 coco but less lime. I guess the Demerara would help round it out, lessen the tartness of the lime?

Correct! Shaking it well and getting good water diluted into the mix is also very important.
