Notes
The chūhai cocktail is Japan's favorite highball. The three key ingredients - shochu, fresh juice, & soda water - are tikified here with our Almond Orgeat Syrup and blood orange juice. For a coconut washed shochu, combine 1 cup of coconut oil with 750 ml of whiskey. Shake and leave at room temperature (avoid solidification of the coconut oil) for 24 hrs. Toss in the freezer until the oil has solidified on top. Remove this oil and filter shochu through a coffee filter to clarify.
