Monkey in a Tree Drink Recipe

The Monkey in a Tree is supposed to be a golden cocktail with a layer of green Midori floating on top, or a golden cocktail with the Midori at the bottom like a sunrise effect. But it all depends on the brands you use for the other ingredients. Sometimes it just all mixes together.

But that’s the thing about layered cocktails – fortunately, they don’t taste any different when you stir everything up instead! This one is wonderfully tropical – all pineapple, banana, coconut and melon.
