Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup fresh pineapple chunks or 1/3 cup pineapple juice (preferably fresh or canned in juice, not syrup)
  • 2 tablespoons coconut cream
  • 810 fresh mint leaves
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1/2 cup soda water or sparkling lemon-lime soda
  • 1 cup crushed ice
  • 12 teaspoons simple syrup, honey, agave nectar, or maple syrup (optional, to taste)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Mint and Lime Base: Gently muddle the fresh mint leaves with freshly squeezed lime juice and your chosen sweetener in a sturdy glass to release the essential oils and combine the tangy and herbal flavors that define the mojito base.
  2. Add Pineapple and Coconut: Incorporate pineapple juice or small pineapple chunks into the glass, then drizzle in the creamy coconut cream. Stir well to blend the fruity and creamy elements smoothly while keeping the texture light.
  3. Fill With Crushed Ice and Sparkling Soda: Fill the glass to the top with crushed ice, then slowly pour the sparkling water or lemon-lime soda over it to create the signature fizz and float effect. Stir lightly to combine the layers without losing the bubbles.
  4. Garnish and Serve Immediately: Finish by garnishing with a sprig of fresh mint and a pineapple wedge on the rim for added aroma and visual appeal. Serve with a straw and enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • Use fresh lime juice and fresh mint leaves for brighter flavor and aroma.
  • Start with less sweetener and adjust to taste to avoid overpowering the natural tropical flavors.
  • Keep pineapple juice and coconut cream chilled to maintain refreshment.
  • Use crushed ice for a slower melting rate and better float texture.
  • Pour soda slowly over the ice to preserve carbonation and the float effect.
