Reviews
These were great. I tripled the recipe for our Fourth of July party. It’s a lot of limes to squeeze ! I microwaved them slightly which made them easier to squeeze and then added some bottled lime juice as well to get the correct amount. Nellie and Joes Key lime juice is very good !
This recipe was delightful! I have been looking for a lime and coconut summer drink and this one fit the bill!
Amazingly refreshing! Perfect flavor combo.
I love it just with a little less lime. It was a little bitter for my taste.
These Mojitos are so so good! Love the coconut water & coconut rum! Great flavor combo especially with spicy food. Highly recommend!
