Ingredients in Coconut Water Strawberry Vodka Cocktail
- Vodka: the vodka really shines in this cocktail so pick a vodka you truly enjoy.
- Coconut Water: Fresh coconut water would be amazing in this cocktail, but breaking into a fresh coconut is not always an option. For this recipe I used canned/bottled coconut water I picked up at the grocery store. Look for pure coconut water, empty of added flavors and ingredients.
- Orange Juice: Freshly squeezed orange juice adds a pop of freshness, tartness and breaks down the strawberries to create a jammy, compote syrup that takes this cocktail to the next level. Keep a few slices of orange for garnish.
- Fresh strawberries: fresh sliced strawberries give this cocktail body, while enhancing the flavor of the coconut water.
- Sugar: a dash of sugar helps to break down the berries with the orange juice, while adding a touch of sweetness. Use white or brown sugar or sugar substitute of choice.
