The LaCroix Cran-Raspberry Watermelon Cooler Mocktail is a refreshing and fruity beverage that perfectly combines the sweetness of watermelon with the tartness of cranberry. This mocktail is ideal for hot summer days, picnics, or any occasion where you want to enjoy a light and invigorating drink.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup fresh watermelon: The star of this mocktail, fresh watermelon adds a juicy sweetness and a hydrating element that is perfect for warm weather.
- 2 oz. of diet cranberry juice: This adds a tart and slightly sweet flavor, complementing the watermelon and enhancing the overall taste of the drink.

- 1 oz. Lime Juice: Fresh lime juice adds a zesty kick that balances the sweetness of the watermelon and cranberry.
- Fresh mint: Mint leaves provide a refreshing aroma and a cool flavor that elevates the mocktail.
Directions:
- Start by smashing the fresh watermelon in a bowl or pitcher until it becomes a juicy pulp. This will release the watermelon’s natural sweetness and flavor.
- In the same pitcher, mix the smashed watermelon with the diet cranberry juice and lime juice. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
- Pour the mixture into a glass, filling it about three-quarters full.
- Top off the drink with LaCroix Razz-Cranberry for a bubbly finish.
