In my past life on the sugar, my go-to was always some kind of rum punch. Whenever you visit Florida, I feel like you need to have a rum punch in hand to really kick-off a vacation. Since a traditional rum punch is nowhere near acceptable for keto life, I wanted to come up with my own.
In comes Everly’s Peach Mango drink mix. and Fruit Punch.
To get the authentic mouthfeel of something like a rum punch, I like to blend this with some strawberries before I shake it, for texture, so it’s a little more involved which is why I made this as a bigger batch—for sharing with a friend!
To make this rum punch, add the following to a blender:
- 1 tsp Everly Fruit Punch drink mix (use code WICKEDSTUFFED to save 15%)
- 1/2 tsp Everly Mango Peach drink mix
- 16 oz cold water
- 1 tsp sugar-free coconut syrup
- 1 tbsp heavy cream (optional, for fat)
- 1/4 cup white rum
- 5 medium strawberries
Then pour your rum punch into a cocktail shaker and serve over ice (and don’t forget the tiny umbrella!)
If you want to half the liquid and use coconut water, it will be 8 net carbs for a 9oz glass. That seemed like a bit much for authenticity, so you can cut that number down to 2.5 carbs if you use 16oz of cold water instead. The sugar-free coconut syrup gives the coconut flavor.

To be honest, I didn’t know that we could still have some fun drinks under Keto. This blog has definitely taught me otherwise and I’m so glad to know better now. Love the presentation on this one!
