Ingredients & Substitutions
Coconut water is such a hydrating base for this drink, and if you can find it fresh, it’s even better! If you don’t have coconut water, you can use plain water, but you’ll miss that tropical vibe. I love using fresh mint, but feel free to omit it if you’re not a fan—maybe try basil instead for a twist!
Tips & Notes
- •I keep my mint in a glass of water in the fridge to keep it fresh longer.
- •If you're feeling fancy, try adding a splash of rum for an adult version!
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I’ll throw in a handful of frozen berries for a fruity twist!
- •You can also swap lime juice for lemon juice if you want a different citrusy flavor.
Storage & Freezing
If you have any leftovers (which is rare!), store it in the fridge in a sealed container for up to a day. Just remember to add fresh ice when you serve it again, as it might lose some of that fizzy charm!
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this ahead of time?
You can mix the coconut water, lime juice, and syrup in advance, but I’d suggest adding the sparkling water just before serving to keep it fizzy.

Start by juicing your limes. You'll need about half a cup of fresh lime juice, so grab those limes and squeeze away!
- 2
In a pitcher, combine the coconut water, fresh lime juice, and maple syrup. Stir well until everything is mixed.

Next, add the bruised mint leaves to the mixture. I usually tap them with the back of a spoon to release their lovely aroma.

Let the mixture sit for about 5-10 minutes to infuse the mint flavor.

Just before serving, pour in the sparkling water for a bubbly twist, and give it a gentle stir.

Serve the cooler over ice cubes in your favorite glasses, and garnish with extra mint leaves or lime slices for a pretty touch!
