If there’s one thing we love, it’s a icy, refreshing cocktail on a hot day. If there’s two things we love, the other thing is an icy, refreshing cocktail that won’t shoot our day’s calorie intake through the roof.

A classic mojito is rum, lime, sugar and mint topped with sparkling water. While we applaud Jennie Garth's Coconut Mojito for adding a tropical spin on the cocktail, the addition of coconut cream and sugary soda makes it stray very far from the second thing we love.

Below is our take on a coconut mojito that will satisfy your craving for a cool beverage, without breaking the calorie bank.
