Spring time means spending more time in your backyard or on your patio, and what better way to do that than with a yummy, refreshing cocktail? Here's another fun new recipe to try from lifestyle blogger and chef Andrea LeTard that's perfect for your next Spring gathering. 

Coconut Lime Colada

Ingredients

• 1 serving
• 1 cup coconut soda water (such as La Croix)
• 2 ounces Coco Real cream (find on Amazon)
• 1 ounce gin
• 1 lime

In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, add the coconut soda water, Coco Real cream, gin, and a squeeze of lime juice. Shake together until cold and combined. Strain into a short glass filled with ice. Add more soda water if needed. Garnish with a lime slice and zest lime over the top.

Enjoy!
