Coconut milk rather than coconut water, which is where the carbohydrate is — the fat carries the salt in a way plain water does not, and it stops the whole thing tasting like a saline drip.

Method

6 steps · 10 minutes

Low-sodium or lite salt from the grocery store is potassium chloride, which is the mineral this is really for.
Whisk both salts into a little warm water first so they dissolve completely, then let it cool.
Shake the can of coconut milk hard before opening it, or you pour off the thin water and leave the fat behind.
Whisk the coconut milk, lime juice and salt water together in a pitcher.
Bruise the mint and drop it in whole, then chill it an hour and take the mint out.
Shake before pouring. It separates, and that is the coconut fat doing what coconut fat does.
