SERVES 2 THE GREEN VIRGIN MARY

This delicious virgin cocktail is full of refreshing cucumber, coconut water and grapes to quench even the deepest thirst. Best served cold -adults can add vodka to their liking (on Vodka Sundays) for an extra spicy brunch drink.

INGREDIENTS

±1 tbsp. honey A handful of tortilla chips, crushed 1 avocado 10 drops of green Jalepeño Hot Sauce, or more to taste ½ cucumber, roughly chopped

EQUIPMENT NEEDED

Blender or food processor Sieve 150g white seedless grapes 1 tsp. sushi vinegar 150ml cold coconut water Juice from 1 lime Toppings (optional): baby corn, pickles, celery, baby avocados, grapes, baby cucumbers, jalapeño slices and lime wedges

Cocktail skewers

METHOD

1 Spread the honey in a circle on a small plate, making sure it’s spread more widely than the mouth of the glass you plan on using for serving. Similarly arrange the crushed tortilla chips on a second plate. 2 Holding the glass upside down, dip and twist the rim in the honey so it is coated, then dip and twist in the crushed tortilla chip mixture to create a crunchy rim. Set aside. 3 Combine all the smoothie ingredients in a blender or food processor until completely smooth. Taste and add more Jalepeño Hot Sauce if desired. 4 To serve, strain the juice through a sieve into the glasses, being careful to keep the nacho rims dry. 5 Thread your favorite toppings onto the cocktail skewers and add to the Green Mary before serving cold with extra Jalepeño Hot Sauce on the side.
