Directions

  1. Prep the base: Grab two deli containers or glass jars. At the bottom of each, add 2 quartered limes and a couple pinches of salt for electrolytes. Using a muddler or spoon, smash everything down to release the aromas and juices.
  2. Add the fruit: Add a handful of berries (blueberries work great) and pomegranate. If you have fresh mint on hand, throw some in here too.
  3. Gently smash again: Gently smash the fruit again—you want most of it to stay intact, but you want to release those juices and aromas.
  4. Add ice: Fill the containers about two-thirds of the way with lots of ice.
  5. Pour and swirl: Pour in sparkling water or coconut water—or go half and half. Give it a good swirl to mix everything together.
  6. Taste and adjust: Taste and adjust with whatever you like—more lime, a little extra salt, or a splash of your favorite fruit.

Pro Tips

  • No plastic, no problem: Use a glass mason jar or a regular tumbler—do what works for you.
  • Endless possibilities: Swap in your favorite fruits—strawberries, raspberries, cucumber, or even citrus slices all work beautifully.
  • Electrolyte boost: The salt isn’t just for flavor—it helps replace electrolytes lost in the heat.
  • Make it a mocktail: Inspired by @olivianoceda’s alcohol-free drinks, these are perfect for anyone cutting back on sugary or alcoholic beverages.
