A quick and easy tropical mocktail combining frozen mango, fresh lime juice, and a luscious homemade coconut cream float for a creamy, refreshing summer drink.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups ripe mangoes, peeled and chopped (fresh or frozen)
  • Juice of 2 large limes
  • 12 tablespoons honey or agave nectar (or maple syrup)
  • 1 cup cold water or coconut water
  • 1 cup ice cubes
  • 1 cup full-fat coconut milk, chilled overnight
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Coconut Cream Float: Carefully open the chilled can of coconut milk without shaking it. Scoop out the thick cream layer into a mixing bowl, leaving the watery part behind. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer or whisk, beat the cream for about 3-5 minutes until light and fluffy. Refrigerate while you make the mocktail.
  2. Blend the Mango Lime Base: In a blender, combine chopped mangoes, fresh lime juice, honey or agave nectar, cold water or coconut water, and ice cubes. Pulse until smooth and frosty, about 45 seconds to 1 minute. Adjust consistency by adding more water or ice cubes as needed.
  3. Taste and Adjust: Taste the mango lime mixture and add extra lime juice for tartness or honey for sweetness if desired. Blend briefly to combine.
  4. Assemble the Mocktail: Pour the frozen mango lime mixture into tall glasses, filling about three-quarters full. Gently spoon or pipe the whipped coconut cream float on top to create a layered effect.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Add a thin lime wheel or a small mango wedge on the rim for decoration. Serve immediately with a straw or long spoon to stir the float into the base.

Notes

Chill the coconut milk overnight to separate the cream for whipping. Use ripe mangoes for best flavor. Pulse blend to avoid watery texture. The coconut cream float should be whipped cold and served fresh. Frozen mango can be used instead of fresh for extra chill. Adjust sweetness gradually to balance tartness.
