For an icy taste of summer, combine white rum, cream of coconut and mint to create this frozen coconut mojito. Margarita glasses are recommended, but you can choose the glass of your choice.

Edit Tips

  • You can rim your highball glass with shredded coconut, if desired.
  • If you don't have access to cream of coconut for the mojito on the rocks, simply add another ounce of coconut rum to the drink. The cream of coconut is essential in the frozen coconut mojito.
  • To make your own simple syrup, cook 1 part of water and 1 part of sugar over medium heat until the sugar dissolves completely. Cool the syrup and add it to your mojito.
