Today I am pairing one of my favorite flavors, which is coconut with rum! I have also made pecan simple syrup to fancy this cocktail up with festive flavor. The best part of this cocktail is the side dessert; the coconut macaroon. Have your own sweet happy hour and pair your favorite cocktail with your favorite cookie!
