Difficulty Easy

Ingredients

ice, for mixing
3 T white rum
3 T coconut water
4 T clear pineapple juice
1 T fresh lime juice
nectarine slices, for serving
fresh mint leave, for serving

Method

1. Fill a shaker with ice. Add rum, coconut water, pineapple juice and lime juice. Shake it up.

2. Pour cocktail in a glass, and garnish with a slice of white nectarines threaded onto a paper umbrella. Top nectarine with a mint leave and serve.

Cook's note: This is a different take on a piña colada. Get your hands on some white rum (try the great local Copeland rum or Tapanga white).
