Serving Size

Equipment

First, you’ll need a muddler to crush the mint leaves and release their flavor.
Use a cocktail shaker to mix everything smoothly.
A strainer is handy for keeping unwanted bits out of your drink.

Grab a tall glass for serving, and don’t forget a stirring stick or straw.

Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to gather for this refreshing cocktail:

1/2 cup of coconut water
2 ounces of white rum
Juice of 1 lime
1 tablespoon of sugar
Fresh mint leaves
Ice cubes
Club soda
Optional: coconut flakes for garnish

The coconut water gives a light, sweet taste, while the fresh lime and mint offer a zesty twist. Feel free to adjust sugar levels to taste for a perfect balance.

Instructions

In a glass or shaker, muddle the mint leaves with sugar. This will release the mint’s aroma.

Add the lime juice, coconut water, and white rum to the muddled mint. Shake or stir well to combine.
Fill the glass with ice cubes to chill the mixture.
Pour club soda over the ice, leaving a bit of room at the top.

Stir gently and garnish with coconut flakes or more mint leaves if desired.

Notes

For a non-alcoholic version, you can skip the rum. The coconut water and mint combo is delightful on its own. When selecting coconut water, I suggest choosing one without added sugars or flavors for the freshest taste.

You can also get creative with garnishes. Adding a slice of lime or a sprinkle of coconut flakes can make the drink look as good as it tastes. If you try this recipe, let me know! I’d love to hear what you think and any fun twists you add. 😊🍹
