Ooh, sorry for not adding that in! Keep it room temperature and out of sunlight :)

You shouldn't need a hammer & nail for a coconut - one of the eyes is soft enough to jab a steak knife in, & once you drain it, just put it in a plastic bag & smash it against the sidewalk once or twice :D

Ooh, that sounds fun :) I actually am not sure how my husband did it... I think he poked a hole (with the nail and hammer?) and then smashed it on the sidewalk. I let him do it, but now I'm wishing I had taken advantage of the moment to rage, lol.

It is LOADS of fun, & really awesome if you're having a bad day (just don't huck it at the sidewalk too often - I did in the middle of winter & come spring I found about a quarter of the coconut that I didn't realize was missing XD)

Lol. I will keep this in mind... Bad day - whack a coconut and infuse some booze - sounds like it would turn a bad day around :)

So, is it the combination of coconut/almond/vanilla bean that creates the "cream" sensation in the flavor?

[after_the_ashes]

That's what I decided to use for the cream/crust kind of taste. It worked really well :)

I know this is probably stupid...but what can you do with infused vodkas? Are they flavored just for comsumption, or is there another use? Sorry if I'm being daft!!

[after_the_ashes]

Definitely not stupid! I've been meaning to use some of the leftover boozy berries and make a sauce for desserts, but I have yet to get to that. But, with my Bloody Mary Vodka Infusion, I made a vodka sauce for pasta that I cooked down for an hour, and my whole family liked it. I guess that's still for consumption, lol.
