5. Garnish with a lime slice or pineapple wedge for that island flair.

SAMANTHA'S SERVING SUGGESTION:

Pour over crushed ice in a tall glass with a straw, kick off your shoes, and sip slowly with the sun on your face. For an extra zing, add sparkling water or a splash of coconut water before serving.
