"In Rennell Island, Solomon Islands, local home-brew is made by fermenting coconut milk, yeast and sugar in a bin and leaving it hidden in the bush for about a week. This coconut rum is mentioned in the song "Poppa Joe" by The Sweet.
In Brazil, coconut milk is mixed with sugar and cachaça to make a cocktail called Batida de Côco."
