Equipment

  • First, grab a shaker to mix everything smoothly. If you don’t have a shaker, a large jar with a lid works too.
  • Use a strainer to keep out ice and chunks while pouring into your glass.
  • You’ll also need a knife and a cutting board to prep your lime and ginger.
  • Make sure to have a measuring cup and spoons handy for accuracy.
  • Finally, a nice glass for serving makes everything more appealing! I like using a tall glass to show off the lovely color. 🥥✨

Ingredients
  

Here’s what you’ll need for one serving of Coconut Ginger Dream Mocktail:

  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
  • Juice of half a lime
  • 1-2 teaspoons honey or sugar
  • Ice cubes

Feel free to adjust the sweetness to your taste with either honey or sugar. 🍈

Instructions
 

  • Prepare your shaker: Add ice cubes to the shaker to get it ready for mixing.
  • Mix the ingredients: Combine coconut milk, freshly grated ginger, lime juice, and your chosen sweetener. Close the shaker tightly.
  • Shake it up: Shake vigorously for about 30 seconds to mix well and chill the drink.
  • Strain and pour: Carefully strain the mixture into your serving glass. This ensures a smooth drink without chunks of ginger.
  • Garnish and serve: Add a slice of lime on the glass rim for a pop of color if you like. Enjoy this creamy and refreshing mocktail! 🌿🥥

Notes

If you prefer a stronger ginger flavor, add extra ginger. The mocktail flavors work best when the ingredients are fresh. Fresh lime juice is much better than bottled juice, and fresh ginger gives the best flavor.
This drink is great for any occasion, like summer parties or quiet evenings at home. Try adding some mint leaves for a fresh twist. Share your thoughts after making it or share with your friends to spread the goodness! 🥥🍹
