🍇🥥 Blackberry Coconut Refresher

Servings: 4
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Chill Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

• 2 cups blackberry juice
• 1 can (13.5 oz / 400 ml) full-fat coconut milk
• 1 cup fresh blackberries
• 2–3 tablespoons honey or simple syrup, to taste
• 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup ice
• Fresh blackberries and lime slices, for garnish

Instructions

1. Prepare the Blackberry Mixture

1. Add the blackberry juice, ½ cup of the fresh blackberries, honey, and lime juice to a blender.
2. Blend until smooth.
3. For a smoother drink, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the blackberry seeds.

2. Prepare the Coconut Layer

1. Shake the can of coconut milk well before opening.
2. Pour the coconut milk into a bowl or measuring cup.
3. Stir in the vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon honey or syrup if you’d like it sweeter.

3. Assemble

1. Fill four glasses with ice.
2. Pour the blackberry mixture into each glass, filling about two-thirds full.
3. Slowly pour the coconut milk over the back of a spoon into each glass. This creates the beautiful blackberry-and-coconut swirl.
4. Gently stir once or twice for a marbled effect.

4. Garnish & Serve

Top with fresh blackberries and a lime slice. Serve immediately while ice-cold.

💜 Tips

• For a fizzier refresher, replace ½ cup of the blackberry juice with chilled sparkling water.
• For a thicker, smoothie-style drink, blend the blackberries with the coconut milk and ice.
• Add a few mint leaves for an extra-refreshing flavor.
• If your coconut milk separates, simply whisk or shake it thoroughly before using.
