FROSTED COCONUT MOJITO WITH WHITE CHOCOLATE PEPPERMINT DRIZZLE 🌴🍹🍫
Ingredients:
- 1 cup coconut cream
- 2 cups fresh mint leaves
- 2 cups coconut milk
- 1 cup lime juice
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 cup crushed ice
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract
- Fresh mint sprigs for garnish
- Lime slices for garnish
Directions:
- Begin by preparing the base of your frosted coconut mojito. In a blender, combine the coconut cream, coconut milk, fresh mint leaves, lime juice, and sugar. Blend until smooth and all the ingredients are well incorporated. You want a nice vibrant green color from the mint leaves.
- Next, add the crushed ice to the mixture. Blend again until you achieve a creamy and frosty consistency. The ice should be well blended, creating the perfect refreshing drink you crave.
- Now, let’s make the white chocolate peppermint drizzle. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine white chocolate chips and peppermint extract. Heat in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth and melted. This will add a delightful touch to your drink.
- To serve, pour the frosted mojito mixture into chilled glasses, about three-quarters full, leaving space for the drizzle.
- Finally, using a spoon or a squeeze bottle, drizzle the melted white chocolate peppermint mixture over the top of each glass. This adds a sweet and festive flair to your drink.
- Garnish each glass with a sprig of fresh mint and a slice of lime.
