Fizzy Coconut Water Raspberry Lemon-Verbena Mocktail
Learn How To Make The Most refreshing summertime (well anytime) drink! A sparkling coconut water raspberry lemon-verbena muddle! The raspberries are infused with the herbs and creates the most delicious mocktail…or cocktail ;) It only takes 5 minutes to make and is Naturally Vegan and unsweetened.
Happy Labor Day weekend! My family is in town and I’m celebrating by making this ridiculously delicious Sparkling Coconut Water Raspberry Lemon-Verbena Mocktail…or cocktail depending on your mood ;)
I'll be super honest with you guys, this drink IS sensational, and man do I hope that you go running to the store to make this - it is that good, I promise :)
It is so refreshing, lightand I mean, who wouldn't want a midday effervescent, pink beverage of pure deliciousness?! Sign me up!
I love that all the natural sweetness of this drink is coming from our favorite California Giant Berries raspberries! We muddle the fresh raspberries with lemon verbena, which has the loveliest aroma that’s similar to a cross between mint and lemon/lime. If you can’t find lemon verbena, no worries, just sub it for mint and a squeeze of lime juice - it will be just as delicious. And from there you top the whole thing off with hydrating coconut water and sparkling water for that effervescent touch that we love so much in mocktails. And if you want to bring this to a party, you can absolutely make it in advance and just wait to add in the fizzy water (or champagne) when you arrive, keeping the bubbles fresh :)
Enjoy you guys and happy holiday weekend!
