Pour into a pitcher and stir well. When ready to serve, pour into a cup with plenty of ice to keep your drink nice and cold. To top it off, add some lemon wheels around the edges for an extra refreshing taste and great look! 

Mojitos
Ingredients:
     9 ounces white rum
     4.5 ounces fresh lime juice
     4.5 ounces mint simple syrup
     16-oz bottle sparkling water
     6 mint sprig

Mix these ingredients together and keep chilled in a refrigerator until you're ready to go. Careful not to make them too early, the mint leaves can get soggy after a while.

     6 ounces pineapple juice

     3 ounces of coconut milk
