Equipment

Ingredients

*For lavender simple syrup:

The balance of coconut water and cream provides both refreshment and richness. The lavender syrup adds a subtle floral note without overwhelming the drink.

Instructions

The drink comes together quickly once you have the syrup prepared. The shaking step is important to properly blend the coconut cream with the other ingredients.

    Notes

    This mocktail can be prepared in advance (without sparkling water) and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Add the sparkling water just before serving.
    For a frozen version, blend all ingredients except sparkling water with 1 cup of ice. Pour into glasses and top with sparkling water.
    The lavender syrup keeps in the refrigerator for up to two weeks and can be used in other drinks or desserts.
    For a sweeter drink, add an extra tablespoon of lavender syrup. For less sweetness, reduce the syrup and add more lime juice.
    Children especially enjoy this drink with a colorful paper straw and extra coconut on top.

    Tasting Notes

    The Coconut Lavender Refresher Mocktail offers a balanced blend of tropical and floral flavors. The coconut milk provides a creamy, smooth base that carries the subtle lavender notes throughout each sip.

    On first taste, the sweetness of coconut comes forward, followed by the gentle floral hint of lavender. These flavors complement rather than compete with each other.

    The texture is light and refreshing, making it perfect for warm weather enjoyment. When properly chilled, the drink feels cool and soothing on the palate.

    Flavor Profile:

    • Primary: Sweet coconut, floral lavender
    • Secondary: Mild vanilla notes (if added)
    • Finish: Clean, refreshing

    The optional garnish of lavender sprigs adds a pleasant aroma that enhances the drinking experience. This scent reaches the nose before the first sip, preparing the palate for the flavors to come.

    The drink works well as a morning refreshment or afternoon treat. Its non-alcoholic nature means the flavors remain bright and clear rather than being masked by spirits.

    Children often enjoy the sweet coconut aspect, while adults appreciate the more complex lavender notes. The mocktail can be adjusted to taste by varying the strength of the lavender component.

    Must Have Ingredients

    Substitutes

    Can’t find coconut milk or lavender? No problem. This mocktail works well with several alternatives.

    For coconut milk, try almond milk or oat milk. These plant-based options blend nicely with the other flavors. Regular milk can work too, but the drink will be less creamy.

    Lavender syrup can be replaced with vanilla syrup for a simpler but still delicious drink. Honey or agave nectar mixed with a drop of food-grade lavender oil also makes a good substitute.

    No lime juice? Lemon juice works perfectly in its place. The tartness helps balance the sweet and floral notes.

    For a completely different twist, try using jasmine tea instead of coconut milk for a lighter, more floral drink. This creates a different but equally refreshing mocktail.

    Remember that substitutions may change the color or exact flavor profile of the drink, but the result will still be tasty.
