Pink Coconut Mojito (10 Minutes)
This 10-minute Pink Coconut Mojito is a light, tropical cocktail made with strawberries or grapefruit juice, creamy coconut milk, fresh lime, mint, and a splash of soda. It’s quick, refreshing, and perfect for summer sipping.
Ingredients
- 8 fresh strawberries hulled and halved (or ½ cup fresh grapefruit juice)
- ¼ cup full-fat coconut milk
- ¼ cup white rum
- ¼ cup simple syrup adjust to taste
- Juice of 2 limes about ¼ cup
- 10 fresh mint leaves
- Soda water 2–3 oz per glass
- Ice
- Fresh mint leaves and strawberry slices or grapefruit wedges for garnish
Instructions
- If using strawberries, mash them in a shaker until juicy. If using grapefruit juice, just measure ½ cup and set it aside.
- Add 10 mint leaves to the shaker. Gently press to release flavor, don’t crush them too hard or they’ll taste bitter.
- Pour in the coconut milk, white rum, lime juice, and simple syrup. Add grapefruit juice now if using it instead of strawberries.
- Add ice to the shaker and shake well for 15–20 seconds. Strain into a tall glass with fresh ice. Use a fine strainer if you don’t want pulp.
- Pour in 2–3 oz of soda water. Add mint, strawberries, or a grapefruit wedge on top.
- Stir gently, add a straw, and serve right away. Refreshing and smooth!
