Instructions
Step 1: Fill the glass with ice
Choose a cute mason jar or your favorite cocktail glass. Fill it to the top with fresh ice cubes to keep your drink cold and crisp.
Step 2: Add the coconut rum
Pour 1.5 oz of coconut rum over the ice. For a stronger drink, feel free to go up to 2 oz.
Step 3: Add the strawberry lemonade
Pour in 3 oz of chilled strawberry lemonade. If using store-bought, pick a good-quality brand. For a homemade twist, blend lemon juice, sugar, water, and fresh strawberries.
Step 4: Stir gently to combine
Use a spoon or cocktail stirrer to gently mix the coconut rum and lemonade together.
Step 5: Garnish and serve
Top with a lemon wheel, a fresh strawberry, or even a candy bunny for a whimsical touch. Add a pastel straw for bonus springtime vibes and serve immediately.
Notes
-
Use a high-quality coconut rum like Malibu for the best flavor and sweetness
-
Strawberry lemonade should be well chilled for best results—avoid adding too much ice later to prevent dilution
-
Garnishes like strawberries and lemon wheels not only look great but add subtle aromas and flavor to each sip
-
This cocktail is best served fresh, but you can pre-mix a batch of rum and lemonade in the fridge ahead of time
-
For a pinker hue, add a splash of grenadine or muddled strawberries
