PINEAPPLE MOJITO
I love pineapple and I love mojito. So combining the two was a winner. When fresh pineapples are available, I like to add a tablespoon of chopped pieces to my mojito and muddle them with the mint leaves.

FROZEN PINEAPPLE MOJITO
Put the lime in the pineapple with this fun summer cocktail! Scoop the fruit from the skin to create pineapple "cups," freeze it, and blend it into a bright and refreshing play on a mojito. Or, if you're short on time, you can use frozen pineapple chunks and regular cocktail glasses.

Steps:
- Trim top of pineapple to remove leaves, but leave top in tact. Cut pineapple in half crosswise. Run a knife in a circle around inside of halves 1/2" away from the skin. Cut across core of pineapple twice, creating 4 pieces and loosening the fruit. Using a big spoon or ice cream scoop, scoop out inside of each pineapple half. Place pineapple "cups" in freezer.
- Discard core and finely chop pineapple (you should have about 4 cups). Place in a single layer on a parchment-lined sheet tray and freeze at least 1 hour.
- Blend frozen pineapple, rum, lime juice, 1/3 cup mint, and 2 cups ice in a blender until smooth. Taste and add sugar, if needed.
- Fill pineapple "cups" with mojito mixture, reserving extra for refills. Garnish with mint sprigs and tiki drink decoration, if using. Reserve remaining mojito mixture in freezer for second serving or serve in alternate glasses.
- Do Ahead
- Pineapple "cups" can be hollowed out 3 days ahead; keep frozen. Pineapple chunks can be frozen up to 3 months ahead.

Steps:
- For simple syrup: Put sugar and 2 teaspoons water in a glass bowl and microwave on full power for 10 to 15 seconds, or until sugar is dissolved.
- Drop blackberries, pineapple, and mint leaves into a sturdy glass and crush to a pulp with the end of a wooden spoon.
- Add the simple syrup, lime juice, and rum.
- Pour the contents into an old-fashioned glass and then back into first glass; repeat until thoroughly mixed, then pour back into old-fashioned glass.
- Add ice cubes and seltzer; stir.
- Garnish with sprig of mint and lime wedge.
Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your mojito will taste. This is especially true for the pineapple and mint. If you can, use organic ingredients to avoid pesticides and other harmful chemicals.
- Choose a good quality rum: A good quality rum is essential for a great mojito. Look for a rum that is smooth and has a slightly sweet flavor. Some good options include Bacardi Superior, Havana Club Añejo Blanco, and Mount Gay Eclipse.
- Use lime wedges instead of lime juice: Lime wedges add a more intense flavor to your mojito than lime juice. Plus, they look prettier in the glass.
- Don't over-muddle the mint: Muddling the mint releases its flavor, but if you over-muddle it, it can become bitter. A few gentle twists with a muddler is all you need.
- Add the soda water last: Adding the soda water last helps to keep the bubbles in your mojito. If you add it too early, the bubbles will dissipate and your mojito will be flat.
Conclusion:
The pineapple mojito is a refreshing and delicious cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be customized to your own preferences. So next time you're looking for a tropical drink to enjoy, give the pineapple mojito a try. You won't be disappointed!
