Ingredients
Liquid Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut water
- 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
- 2 tablespoons simple syrup (adjust to taste)
- Club soda or sparkling water (to top off)
Garnish
- Ice cubes
- Lime slices
- Toasted coconut flakes
Instructions
- Mix the base: In a pitcher, combine the coconut water, freshly squeezed lime juice, and simple syrup. Stir thoroughly to ensure the ingredients are well mixed and the sweetness is balanced to your preference.
- Prepare the glasses: Fill each serving glass with ice cubes to chill and keep the drink refreshing.
- Pour the mixture: Pour the coconut-lime mixture over the ice cubes, filling each glass about halfway to allow room for the fizzy soda.
- Add fizz: Top off each glass with club soda or sparkling water to add a light, bubbly texture that complements the tropical flavors.
- Garnish and serve: Finish each drink by garnishing with lime slices and a sprinkle of toasted coconut flakes for an aromatic and visually appealing touch. Serve immediately and enjoy your tropical refresher!
Notes
- Adjust the amount of simple syrup to achieve your desired sweetness level.
- For a stronger lime flavor, use fresh lime juice rather than bottled.
- To toast coconut flakes, spread them on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes until golden brown, stirring occasionally.
- This drink is best served immediately to maintain the fizz from the club soda.
- Can be served as a non-alcoholic beverage or can be enhanced with a splash of rum for a cocktail version.
