If you want something light and refreshing, grab some soda water or club soda. A splash of lime juice, a few ice cubes, and you have a Malibu Fizz. It’s crisp, it’s clean, and it won’t give you a sugar crash at 10 p.m.
But here’s a little secret: lemon-lime soda (like Sprite or 7-Up) makes everything easier. Mix equal parts Malibu and lemon-lime soda, and you’ve got a simple, fizzy treat that even your picky cousin will drink. It’s the comfort food of cocktails.
For a grown-up twist, swap the soda for ginger beer. The spicy kick of ginger against the sweet coconut is surprisingly perfect. It’s like wearing sneakers with a dress—unexpected, but it works.
