Or at least thatโs my thinking. Iโll never fully understand you guys out there who travel to warm places for the holidays, thatโs just not me. I am all about the very snowy white Christmas, and I am pretty excited because as I type this, itโs snowing! Yeah! Whatโs kind of odd is that while todayโs drink is very white and festive, itโs actually the most tropical of all the Christmas Drink Saturday drinks yet. Guys, say hello to this creamy coconut white Christmas mojito!
Full ofโฆ
โฆfresh mint
โฆlime juice
โฆwhite rum
โฆcoconut rum
โฆcoconut milk
โฆsparkling water
โฆpomegranate arils (for topping โ because you know I love a good garnish!)
Iโm just going to put it out there that in order to love this drink, you have to love coconut because this is a very coconutty drink. Iโm personally all about coconut, so the more the merrier! This drink isย simple as can be, and perfect for all your holiday parties. When I made the Pomegranate Palomas a few weeks ago a lot of you were asking for the measurements to make a large batch, so today Iโm giving both the measurements for a single drink and a pitcher. Yup! Just trying to make your holidays a littler easierโฆand apparently a little boozier too!
Hereโs my quick run-down of this white Christmas mojito. This drink is creamy, fizzy and full of yummy coconut and lime flavors, basically itโs my dream drink, I just LOVE how festive and EASY it is. My brother Brendan and his girlfriend Lyndsie rolled into town Thursday night, just in time for the 5 oโclock cocktail hour, so these were their cocktail of the day. They of course loved them 1) they pretty much love anything with a little rum and 2) they are both coconut loving peopleโฆespecially after their trip to Thailand. <โjealous.
It was snowing really hard (it has been all week), so these were the perfect thing to cap off a bitter cold night off. A little tropicalness in the middle of a freezing cold snowy night! Alright, so Christmas Drink Saturday #4 is a wrapโฆany guesses what #5 and #6 are going to be? Hint, one plays off some inspiration from my hometown Cleveland, Ohio, and the other is going to be Santaโs bestest friend. Get excited!

Have a snow filled white mojito kind of Saturday!
Made this for a Christmas party and it was yummy!!! However the coconut milk did curdleโฆ how do you stop that from happening?
Hey Taylor,
Love to hear this recipe was enjoyed, thanks for making it and your comment! I’m sorry, I have never had the milk curdle so I am not sure the best way to fix that.
Happy Holidays!๐
Best mojito ever! So good and refreshing.
Hi Heather,
Awesome!! Thanks a lot for trying this recipe and your comment, love to hear it turned out nicely for you! Happy New Year!!๐ xxT
These were a hit! I only used coconut rum, and forgot to get mint, as I usually have fresh mint but it was under snow and not looking so good. Nevertheless, it was soooo good. My fiance has dubbed it “snowjitos”! However, no idea how you got the arils to stay on top. I tried and they sank like the titanic to the bottom. (I used fresh.) How did you manage that?
Hi Deborah,
Thank you so much for trying this recipe and your feedback! So glad it was enjoyed:) Mine definitely sink to the bottom too, I just put a few extra on top right before serving and sometimes the stay there for a bit. Cheers! xx
Flavor is to plain. Needs more lime in it. Could barely taste any mint. Itโs a little on the thick side. Pretty much tasted like I was drinking straight up coconut milk with a hint of liquor.
Hi Jenna,
Thanks for trying this recipe and sharing your feedback, so sorry it was not enjoyed! xx
This drink turned out aesthetically pleasing but lacked flavor. The coconut milk kept thickening. I added a bit more rum because I could barely taste it. I live most of your recipes but this cocktail was disappointing.
Hi Holly,
Thanks so much for trying this recipe and your feedback, I’m so sorry to hear it was not enjoyed. If there is anything that I can help with, please let me know! xx
Havenโt tried this recipe and want to read the reviews.
Hope you enjoy! xT
Could I do this as a frozen drink in a machine? Maybe make a mint simple syrup as to not stuck up the machine?
Hi Jenny,
I’m so sorry, I honestly do not know, I have never worked with a frozen drink machine. Please let me know if I can help in any other way! xx
This was a big hit with our family! Everyone loved the taste and how festive it looked with the โsnowโ top and pomegranate seeds.
Hi there! Thank you soooo much for trying out this recipe! Iโm so glad you enjoyed it! ๐ xT
We made this exactly as the recipe instructed and it was so bitter we couldnโt drink it.
Hi Kevin! Thank you soooo much for trying out this recipe! I’m so glad you enjoyed it! ๐ xT
I meant to make this 5 stars but could t figure out how to edit it.
This was a huge hit for our family Christmas. Even the non-alcohol drinkers loved it. Itโs a new family tradition.
I meant to make this 5 stars.
Hi! Thank you so much for giving the recipe a try! Hope you have a wonderful New Year! ๐ xT
This recipe did not work. The coconut milk curdles. I lost our 2nd annual family cocktail competition because of this drink ๐ do not make this recipe!!
Hi Evan! I am so so sorry about that! Is there anything else I can do to help? xT
Making these Saturday! Such a pretty drink, thank you for sharing and Merry Christmas ๐
Thank you so much! Have a Merry Christmas! xT
How far ahead can I make and chill the punch mixture? Is 24 hours too long?
Hi Lea! Yes, that should work just fine ๐ xT
Made this to help pass the time with this blizzard! LOL Yummy! Dreaming of tropical places while bundled up drinking this delicious cocktail!
Hey Lori,
I appreciate you making this recipe and sharing your review, I am so glad to hear it was enjoyed! Merry Christmas! ๐๐
Any suggestions on how to make this N/A?! Would love this for Christmas but currently expecting.
Hey Kylie,
You’ll just want to use extra coconut milk and ginger beer and omit the alcohol of course! Let me know if you give this recipe a try, I hope it’s a hit! xT
I lost friends over this drink. The coconut, lime, and fizz from the soda created a reaction in our stomachs that would rival the 15 minute experiments of the legendary Bill Nye. I appreciate a good practical joke, but like many others, I understood the Geneva convention banned chemical weapons. Never the less, I write this review as I make love to the toilet seat because I made two litres of this cheap poison and couldn’t bear to watch myself throw it away. Touchรฉ Tieghan. 7/10
