Inspiration

When I first made this Coconut Lime Refresher, I was a member of the Allrecipes Allstar group and would receive their magazine in the mail. One of the recipes in the magazine was for a Brazilian Lemonade.

I took the Brazilian Lemonade idea and made it into an alcholic beverage by adding rum! By blending ice into the drink I made it similar to a boozy slushy drink and one that everyone who tries wants the recipe for!

Fresh limes. Look for heavy limes that give to a touch and has a distinct lime scent when the skin is scratched lightly.

Coconut water. Be sure to buy water similar to this brand. This is not coconut milk, it is clear and looks like water (unless you buy an added flavor to the water).

Sweetened Condensed Milk. This is not an ingredient to skip as it is what gives that milky color to the rum refresher. I like to use this brand in a squeeze bottle for easier storage after use.

Granulated sugar is neeed to add sweetness to the beverage.

Your favorite brand of white rum.

Ice, you can use cubed or crushed.

A heavy duty blender, one that will hole a good amount of volume.

🔪 Instructions

Step 1:

Clean the limes with a food safe cleaner. I like to use this fruit and veggie wash.
Cut the limes into 8 sections each.

Step 2:

Place the limes in the blender. Add the water, coconut water, rum, sugar, and sweetened condensed milk.
Blend for 1-2 minutes, until the limes are broken down int small pieces.

Step 3:

Pour the coconut lime refresher from the blender into fine mesh strainer over a wide mouth pourable mixing bowl.
Rinse out the blender and return the coconut lime mixture back into the blender.
Add the ice and blend until frosty.

📖 Variations

Use a pineapple flavored coconut water in place of plain coconut water.
Use crushed ice instead of ice cubes and create a slushy coconut lime refresher.
Blending the entire lime, rind and all, add terrific flavor. However, just adding the juice of 4 juicy limes, will still taste great.
Make this juice keto friendly and sugar free by using powdered monkfruit in place of the sugar and 3 tablespoons of this sugar free condensed milk.
