Prepare the glass

• Run a lime wedge around the rim of the glass and dip it in the desiccated coconut.
• Fill the glass with ice cubes.

Muddle the mint and lime

• Put the mint leaves and sugar in the shaker.
• Add the lime juice and gently muddle to release the aromas without shredding the mint.

Shake the cocktail

• Pour the white rum and coconut cream into the shaker.
• Add ice and shake well until the outside of the shaker is frosted.

Assemble and serve

• Strain into the prepared glass over the ice.
• Top up with soda water and stir gently.
• Garnish with a mint sprig, a lime wedge and a few cranberries.
