minutesA spicy sweet twist to a cocktail classic! Most of us have enjoyed a few great Mojito nights (though not necessarily the morning after) but none of them will have tasted quite like this… a ‘Coconut Chilli Mojito’ is a tropical thrill in a glass. Just add friends.
Ingredients
1/2 Lime
1/2 Tbsp Raw Sugar
1/4 Red Chili
2 Sprigs of Mint
70 mL Malibu
35 mL Sparkling Water
Crushed Ice
1 Sprig of Mint for garnish
Directions
- Add the lime, raw sugar and chilli to a sturdy highball glass. Muddle until the sugar is dissolved. Add the mint leaves and mash briefly.
- Add the Malibu and sparkling water. Stir.
- Fill up with the crushed ice and combine until well mixed. Tip: You might not want to add the crushed ice all at once so it’s easier to mix.
- Add straw and a sprig of mint. Enjoy!
Notes
- Exchange the Malibu and raw sugar for white rum and coconut syrup.
- If you have to make a few mojitos at a time, muddle the lime, raw sugar, chilli and mint in a bigger jar, divide between all the glasses. Proceed with recipe as above.
- Try this cocktail without mint, just add another quarter of lime instead.
