Carabino
2 oz white rum
3 oz coconut water
1/4 oz lime juice
1 t 2:1 simple syrup
The 1st drink was made with pressed coconut water, big disappointment the pressed coconut water was very dense and hid the other ingredients.
The second drink was made with Vita Coco coconut water. Light and refreshing with hints of lime great heat of summer cocktail

1/3 bottle of Luxardo $10
1/2 bag of frozen cherries about $ 2
Everything else maybe $ 2
$14 for over 2xs as much plus you can make it as you wish and just add cherries as needed
The cherries are not quite as firm as the store bought but definitely not "mushy"
Hint: I understand that you can substitute 1/2 c Bourbon for the Luxardo. Never done it but may be worth a try.
