cocomojito

The Mojito is a classic cocktail hailing from from Havana, Cuba. Our Cocomojito uses a coconut water white rum which gives this cocktail a touch of coconut with fresh mint, lime juice and a demerara sugar simple syrup. Simple syrup is aptly named because it is simply equal parts sugar and hot water. We use demerara sugar, a minimally processed raw sugar. It is golden brown due to the small amount of molasses that remains after processing the sugar cane and has a slight caramel or toffee flavor which makes it perfect for coffees and cocktails. For more coconut flavor, use a coconut rum or use a white rum for no coconut flavor.
