Scale

Fruits and Herbs

  • 1/2 cup fresh pineapple chunks (ripe)
  • 8 mint leaves (chopped)
  • 1 lime (juiced)
  • Fresh mint sprigs (for garnish)
  • Lime wedges (for garnish)
  • Pieces of fresh pineapple (for garnish)

Liquids and Sweeteners

  • 1 tablespoon sugar (or simple syrup or brown sugar)
  • 2 cups pineapple juice
  • 2 cups club soda
  • 4 ounces white rum (or coconut rum for a tropical twist)

Other

  • Ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Mash Ingredients: In a large mortar and pestle or a sturdy bowl, combine the fresh pineapple chunks, sugar (or simple syrup or brown sugar), chopped mint leaves, and freshly squeezed lime juice. Using the pestle, smash the mixture until it becomes creamy and the mint leaves are well incorporated with the pineapple and lime juice.
  2. Mix Cocktail: Transfer the mashed mixture into a small pitcher. Add the pineapple juice, club soda, and white or coconut rum. Stir thoroughly to combine all the ingredients. Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness if desired by adding more sugar or simple syrup.
  3. Pour Over Ice: Fill two large glasses about two-thirds full with ice cubes. Pour the cocktail mixture over the ice evenly into each glass.
  4. Serve and Garnish: Garnish each glass with fresh mint sprigs, lime wedges, and pieces of fresh pineapple to enhance the presentation and aroma. Serve immediately for the best refreshing experience.

Notes

  • Use ripe pineapple for the best sweetness and flavor.
  • Adjust sweetness according to taste by varying the amount of sugar or using simple syrup.
  • Coconut rum adds a tropical twist if preferred over white rum.
  • This cocktail is best served fresh and chilled.
  • For a non-alcoholic version, omit rum and increase club soda or use sparkling water.
