Recipe: Refreshing Coconut Water Lemonade
Coconut Water Lemonade – amazing and refreshing lemonade made with coconut water and fresh lemon juice. The best lemonade recipe ever!
Coconut water is our thirst-quencher to beat the tropical heat.
Everything tastes so much better with coconut water, including this lemonade. Once you try this coconut water lemonade, you will never, EVER go back to regular lemonade. Sipping this coconut water lemonade will transports you to the exotic faraway lands and islands in Southeast Asia or the Caribean, where life is laid-back and happy.
If you can’t get fresh coconut water, you can get canned coconut water easily from any stores now. I used some fresh and homegrown lemons and mixed it with the coconut water. All you need is a little bit of your own preferred sweetner and ice, and you will have the most amazing lemonade; everyone will be begging you for more!
Muddle the mint leaves, sugar, lemon slices and lime slices with a muddler or pestle in the bottom of a large glass. In a blender, mix a little ice, water, coconut milk, lemon juice, lime juice and rum (if using). Give drink a quick blend. Pour into glass with muddled mint mixture. Garnish with mint sprigs and lime slices.
