Ingredients
Scale:
2 cups coconut water
1 cup fresh lime juice (approximately 8-10 limes)
1/2 cup coconut milk
1/4 cup simple syrup (adjust according to taste)
Pinch of sea salt
Lime wedges (optional)
Mint leaves (optional)
Shredded coconut (optional)
Instructions
Start by preparing the limes. Roll them under your palm on a flat surface to maximize juice extraction. Cut them in half and use a citrus juicer to extract the fresh lime juice. Strain the juice to remove any seeds or pulp, ensuring a smooth beverage.
In a large pitcher, combine the coconut water, freshly squeezed lime juice, coconut milk, and simple syrup. Stir the mixture until all the ingredients are well-blended.
Add a pinch of sea salt to the mixture to enhance the natural flavors of the coconut and lime.
Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the coconut limonade over the ice, allowing the drink to chill instantly.
Garnish each glass with a wedge of lime, a sprig of mint, or a sprinkle of shredded coconut.
