Notes
- For the best results, use fresh coconut water and freshly grated ginger.
- Chill your glasses in the freezer for 15-20 minutes before serving to keep the mocktail refreshing for longer.
- Experiment with garnishes like a slice of ginger or a colorful fruit skewer for visual appeal.
- Adjust sweetness and spiciness to suit your palate. Add more lime juice for a tangier twist.
- Swap tonic water for sparkling water or ginger ale for different fizziness.
- To make a low-calorie version, use unsweetened coconut water and a low-calorie sweetener instead of honey or agave.
- Leftover mix can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. The carbonation will reduce over time.
- Freeze the coconut ginger mixture without tonic water in an airtight container for up to three months. Thaw and add fresh tonic water just before serving.
