- ½ lemon, juiced plus remaining half for garnish
- 1 Tbsp. coconut sugar plus more for garnish
- 1 oz. vodka
- 3-4 oz. coconut water
- a handful of ice
Combine lemon juice, coconut sugar and vodka in a cocktail shaker. Stir until sugar begins to dissolve. Add coconut water and ice, cover and shake.
Pour some additional coconut sugar onto a plate and set aside.
Garnish cocktail glass by running a lemon wedge all the way around the rim of the glass. Place the glass, rim side down, on the plate and twist back and forth until it is coated with coconut sugar.
Fill glass with ice and another squeeze of lemon if you wish. Pour cocktail through strainer over ice and enjoy. Can be prepared without vodka for an equally refreshing (but less potent!) drink.
Enjoy!
More more lemon flavor, use lemon or citrus vodka. If you love coconut, try it with coconut vodka instead.
