During an incredibly vivid dream one night, I concocted a cocktail of coconut milk infused with hot pepper and mixed with vodka; it was called the Lidocaine. Recently, having opened some coconut milk to make peanut sauce, I decided to make the dream, and did by steeping the coconut milk with minced ginger and habanero, a good dash of cinnamon and 2 demerara sugar cubes. Strain and then chill that, shake hard with vodka and ice, strain and top with a splash of Cognac and a strip of orange zest. <br />Nice!
