Raise your hand if you wish you were on a sandy beach right now.
Me too!
Sometimes we can’t always escape to the beach to watch the crash of the waves and swarming seagulls overhead. There are bills to pay, children to feed, and a to-do list to accomplish on the weekends. But, I’ve got the next best thing just for you: Berry Beach Blast cocktail.
Okay, you’re right. It’s not just like sitting on the beach, but humor me for a second. Once you take a couple sips of this all natural cocktail made with coconut and lime juices and ripe strawberries, you may just mentally escape during happy hour.
Oh, and coconut water has numerous healthy benefits. According to lifehacks.org, it is rich in nutrients and reduces your blood pressure. You can buy it at any grocery store but you’ll probably find it in the organic section.

This summer cocktail takes ten minutes to make and delivers real tropical flavor. Be sure to comment below and tell me what you think of it or tag OneDelightfulLife on Instagram.
I can hear those ocean waves crashing now. 🙂
