  • About

The name of this seafood cocktail literally means “return to life,” and for many people who party too hearty, it’s a popular hangover cure. All along Mexican beaches, you see guys with machetes who crack the coconuts and then mix the seafood straight from the ocean right in front of you. While a freshly cracked coconut is ideal, you can substitute a can of unsweetened coconut milk for the meat and coconut liquid.
