Make the Mocktail

  • Place all the ingredients into a shaker and shake well.

Notes

To make a pitcher full of this tropical mocktail, pour all ingredients in the pitcher and mix well. Shake with fresh ice before serving, or pour over fresh ice. 

Variations

Spice it up: Add a pinch of nutmeg (or 1 fresh nutmeg) or other spices to the brown sugar syrup. Let steep at least 1 hour before straining the simple syrup. 
Swap the citrus: Instead of lemon juice, use lime juice or even orange juice to give this tropical drink its zesty kick. 
Make it a piña colada: Add coconut cream and blend the mixture well.
