Caribbean Sunset Mocktail From Minute Maid®

Some days I imagine relaxing on the beach, watching the waves crash, all while drinking a cold, refreshing mocktail. Then reality hits me and I realize I have been on my feet at work for 8 hours and a beach is nowhere in sight. Luckily at least part of my vision can become reality when I sit in the yard and watch my kiddos play with a cold, refreshing mocktail. I may not be at the beach, but Minute Maid® has a super simple and delicious recipe that will make you feel like the beach is so close you can feel the ocean mist, even if it’s actually just my sprinkle getting a little too close. I found the recipe for this Caribbean Sunset Mocktail here: https://www.coca-colacompany.com/food and it was so refreshing even my husband asked me to make him one!
