Mint Pineapple Ginger Beer Mocktail

This is an easy and simple mocktail with a refreshing tropical twist. Pineapple juice is mixed with coconut water then topped with ginger beer all with a fresh mint addition that makes this drink very enjoyable.

I think a nice and spicy ginger beer is the perfect addition for sweet pineapple juice, they pair together perfectly to make a great pineapple mocktail. This is a great drink for a warm summer day or if you are looking for a refreshing drink. The addition of coconut water helps replenish electrolytes and other minerals your body needs after a workout or a very hot day. The pineapple juice is also a great way to get some great vitamins. Whether you are in it for the refreshing twist or tropical flavor this is a great recipe to have in your back pocket. 

Ingredients

• Fresh Mint Leaves - The mint helps enhance this drinks flavors, don't forget some extra for garnishing the drink!
• Pineapple Juice - You can use fresh pineapple juice if you have that available to you but using canned pineapple juice works just has well in this recipe.
• Coconut Water - The coconut water works well to help mellow out the bite of the pineapple juice, it also works as a good filler for the drink.
• Apple Cider Vinegar - Just a touch to help with the zing, feel free to skip this if you don't want it.
• Ginger Beer - There are many brands to chose from, I personally like Fever Tree but use what you enjoy.

Instructions

Place the mint leaves at the bottom of a cocktail shaker. Gently muddle them with a muddler or the back of a wood spoon to release their aromatic oils.

Add the pineapple juice, coconut water, and apple cider vinegar to the shaker. Toss in a handful of ice cubes to chill the mixture.

Secure the lid on the cocktail shaker and shake vigorously for about 10 seconds.

Fill two serving glasses with ice cubes. Divide the mocktail mixture evenly between the two glasses. Pour the ginger beer into each glass, filling to the top.

Garnish each glass with a fresh sprig of mint for an elegant touch.
