This is no traditional margarita, as we’ve used coconut rum in place of tequila, but don’t be fooled! Everything you love about a classic marg is there - zesty lime and the infamous salt rim, but with a tropical twist of pineapple and coconut. Oh, and did we mention for half the PersonalPoints of a traditional margarita?!

Ingredients

Agave Syrup

2 teaspoon(s), level

Lime Juice, Fresh

20 ml

Pineapple Juice

60 ml

Reduced fat coconut milk, tinned (7.7% Fat)

40 ml

Malibu Original Caribbean Rum with Coconut Flavour

60 ml

Lime Juice, Fresh

25 ml

Freshly squeezed orange juice

90 ml

Lemon & lime flavour sparkling water

500 ml

Instructions

  1. To make the lollies, mix the agave, lime juice, pineapple juice and coconut milk in a small bowl or jug. Stir in 60ml water. Divide between 2 x 95ml capacity WW lolly moulds. Place lid on top and freeze for 6 hours, or overnight, until frozen solid.
  2. To make the salt rim, take the lime that you juiced for the lollies and rub the flesh all around the rim of 2 x 200ml capacity margarita glasses. Place 2 tsp salt on a small plate, then roll the rim of the glasses into the salt to coat. Set aside.
  3. Stir the rum, lime and orange juice in a cocktail shaker or measuring jug. Top with the lime flavoured water, then gently stir. Divide cocktail mixture evenly between salted margarita glasses. Carefully release lollies from moulds and place into glasses. Top with dried lime (if using) and serve.

Notes

Replace half of the orange juice with triple sec, for a stronger taste.
