A Coconut Mojito recipe is a perfect coconut mint mojito to sip on since I live in tropical Florida.
If you have never sipped on a minty Mojito you don't know what you are missing. A Mojito is as tropical as you can get. It is a traditional Cuban cocktail that is said to have been created sometime around 1400-1500's in Havana Cuba.
Today I am sharing this Bahama Breeze Copycat Coconut Mojito recipe.
Traditional Mojito Recipe
A traditional Mojito only has five ingredients; rum, lime juice, superfine sugar or cane sugar, soda water and mint, usually served over ice.
But you can make so many different variations of a Mojito just by adding another flavor ingredient like coconut milk as I did with this Coconut Mojito.
Bahama Breeze Coconut Mojito recipe
I had my first taste of a Coconut Mint Mojito on a recent visit to a Bahama Breeze restaurant.
I fell in love with it and knew I had to try and make my own version of a Coconut Mojito.
Fruity Mojito recipes
I also recently made a Strawberry Mojito and Blueberry Mojito.
The Strawberry Mojito recipe is already on the blog but I am saving the Blueberry Mojito for National Mojito Day.
No matter which Mojito you decide to try you will need the ingredients for a traditional mojito and a cocktail muddler. You will also need a can of coconut milk to make this Coconut Mojito.
