Do Ahead
Make the coconut water ice cubes by freezing coconut water in an ice cube mold. Best if done the day before. You want the cubes to be frozen solid.

When ready to make the drink, combine the rum, whisky, coconut water, curaçao, simple syrup, and bitters in a shaker with regular ice. Shake until chilled. Strain into a rocks glass over the frozen coconut water ice.
