4-6
sprigs mint

¼
cup
La Croix sparkling coconut water,

Instructions
In a shaker, place seeded and washed loquats, lime juice, mint sprigs and agave.
Using a wooden spoon or muddler, crush everything together to get the most juice from the loquats and bring out the flavor of the mint.
Add the rum and place the top on the shaker and shake for 30 seconds.
Fill a tall glass with ice. Pour the mixture from the shaker, through a strainer, into the glass.
Top with sparkling coconut water and garnish with a sprig of mint.
Notes
If you can't find loquats you can substitute apricots or quince.
