The Purple Moo


This drink is a fun lavender color and full of coconut milk bubbles. It's a great way to get your finicky family members to hydrate now and again and little kid’s love it! Blueberry is filled with antioxidants and coconut is a great source of immune supportive Lauric Acid. Enjoy!


Seltzer or sparkling mineral water
Unsweetened bottled blueberry juice
Stevia drops
Full fat coconut milk (from the can), preferably organic
Ice cubes

In individual glasses, place the ice and 3 or so stevia drops (or powdered stevia to taste). Add blueberry juice to about 1/3 of the height of the glass, then add a splash of coconut milk (about 3 tblsp), and mix thoroughly. Taste for sweetness at this point. Then top off the glass with sparkling water (seltzer or gassed mineral water), and watch the bubbles rise up to the top!

This drink would be delightful with tropical mango/papaya juice, pomegranate juice, elderberry juice, cranberry juice (would need more stevia likely), or other sugarless juice that would pair well with coconut milk. Could also be good with cold jasmine tea.

Serves: As many as you like!
Preparation Time: Less than 5 minutes
