Ingredients
Main Ingredients
1 cup fresh pineapple chunks
1-inch piece of fresh ginger peeled and grated
2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup
1/2 cup water
Ice as needed
2 cups ginger beer
Fresh mint leaves for garnish
Pineapple wedges for garnish
Instructions
Blend Ingredients: In a blender, combine the pineapple chunks, grated ginger, honey or agave syrup, and water. Blend until smooth to create a flavorful base for the mocktail.
Strain Mixture: Pour the blended mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a pitcher to remove any pulp or bits of ginger for a smooth beverage.
Prepare Glasses: Fill two glasses with ice to chill the drink and keep it refreshing.
Pour Base: Evenly divide and pour the pineapple-ginger mixture between the two glasses, filling each about one-third full.
Add Ginger Beer: Top off each glass with ginger beer to add fizz and a spicy kick to the mocktail.
Mix Gently: Stir gently in each glass to combine the layers without losing the fizz.
Garnish and Serve: Garnish with fresh mint leaves and pineapple wedges. Serve immediately to enjoy the fresh and invigorating flavors.
Notes
Use fresh pineapple for the best flavor; canned pineapple can be substituted but may alter the taste slightly.
Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of honey or agave syrup according to your preference.
For a spicier kick, add a little more grated ginger or use a spicier ginger beer variant.
Make sure to stir gently after adding ginger beer to preserve the carbonation.
This mocktail is perfect for summer parties or as a refreshing non-alcoholic option any time.
