The Cojito is a sweet cocktail made with lime and mint, and typically rum and coconut. It is a variant of the mojito, but typically adds coconut flavor. This can be done by adding coconut milk or coconut-flavored liqueurs, or by using coconut-flavored rum such as Blue Chair Bay, Cruzan coconut, or Malibu.[1]Template:R/superscript[2]Template:R/superscript[3]Template:R/superscript[4]Template:R/superscript[5]Template:R/superscript Coconut on the rim of the cocktail glass may also be used.[6]Template:R/superscript The use of coconut rum gives the Cojito a more "tropical" taste than the mojito.[3]Template:R/superscript The strong minty taste may lead some to adjust downward the quantity of fresh mint leaves used.[5]Template:R/superscript
