Expert recipe tips

- Chill your glasses - Chilling your glasses in the freezer in advance is a bartender’s trick that will keep your mocktail cold and refreshing.
- Taste and adjust – The beauty of making this recipe is that you can add more agave syrup if you prefer it sweeter, or more lime if you like it tangier.

- Rum extract - You can add rum flavor, without the alcohol, by adding a touch of rum extract
- Pineapple garnish - Add a fresh pineapple wedge along with the glazed cherries for a festive tropical finishing touch
Substitutions
- Coconut Milk - Cream of coconut can replace coconut milk for a richer texture, however, cream of coconut is usually sweetened so you may want to reduce the amount of agave syrup that you add.
- Coconut Milk – Light coconut milk can also replace full fat coconut milk if you want to reduce the calories however the texture may be changed slightly.
- Agave Syrup - Honey, maple syrup or simple syrup can replace agave syrup.
- Lime - Lemon juice or orange juice can be used in place of lime juice but this will change the fruity flavor profile.
- Glazed Cherries - Maraschino cherries can replace glazed cherries
