Key Ingredients for the Icy Texture
Planning the freezing step ahead of time is crucial for the best texture.
Frozen Coconut Cream Cubes: Plan this step ahead! Use canned coconut cream and freeze it overnight in ice cube trays.

Rim Ingredients (Optional): Vanilla frosting and desiccated coconut are needed for the snowy rim effect that add a beautiful texture contrast.
How to Assemble Your Jack Frost Mocktail
The process starts with preparing your snowy rim, blending the frozen mixture, and serving immediately.

Blend the Mocktail: In a blender, combine the frozen coconut cream cubes and the Blue Lemon and Raspberry Juice. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth, thick, and frosty.
Serve Immediately: Transfer the blended mixture to your prepared glass. Finally, serve immediately before the frosty texture melts.
