  • Ingredients
  • Here’s what you’ll need to whip up this delightful cooler:
  • For the Basic Mint Pineapple Cooler:
  • 2 cups fresh pineapple chunks you can also use canned pineapple, just make sure to drain it
  • 1 cup fresh mint leaves about 15-20 leaves
  • 1 cup coconut water for a tropical twist
  • 1 cup sparkling water or soda water for a sweeter option
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice freshly squeezed for the best flavor
  • 1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup optional, adjust to taste
  • Ice cubes for serving

Instructions
 

  • Step-by-Step Method
  • Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
  • Gather all your ingredients. If you're using fresh pineapple, cut it into chunks. Wash the mint leaves thoroughly to remove any dirt.
  • Step 2: Blend the Pineapple and Mint
  • Add the pineapple chunks and mint leaves to a blender. Blend until smooth. If you want a smoother drink, you can strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer to remove the pulp.
  • Step 3: Mix the Cooler
  • In a large pitcher, combine the blended mixture with coconut water, lime juice, and honey (if using). Stir well to combine everything.
  • Step 4: Add Sparkle
  • Just before serving, add the sparkling water to the pitcher and gently stir. This will keep the cooler fizzy and refreshing.
  • Step 5: Serve Over Ice
  • Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the Mint Pineapple Cooler over the ice. Garnish with a sprig of mint or a pineapple slice if desired.
  • Step 6: Enjoy!
  • Sip and enjoy your Mint Pineapple Cooler! It’s perfect for cooling down on a hot day or serving at a summer gathering.
  • Variations
  • Mint Pineapple Mojito: Add 1-2 ounces of white rum for a boozy twist.
  • Berry Mint Cooler: Blend in a cup of strawberries or blueberries with the pineapple for a fruity flavor.
  • Non-Alcoholic Punch: For a kid-friendly version, skip the rum and increase the coconut water for a fun party punch.
