I love making non alcoholic cocktails when the weather is warm. Going teetotal needn’t be dull- you don’t have to just make do with “virgin” versions of what everyone else drinks, try this tropical, healthy as well as tasty recipe. All you need is a blender -have fun!
Pineapple Surprise (creates enough for 4 people)
Ingredients
1 Chopped fresh pineapple
A glass of organic fresh apple juice
A glass of organic fresh orange juice
1/2 glass of ginger beer
3 pieces finely chopped crystallised ginger
1 spoon granulated brown sugar
Reserve about a quarter of the chopped pineapple and blend the rest. Mix the reserved chunks of pineapple with the chopped crystallised ginger and sprinkle with the sugar. Put the mixture into an icecube tray so the fruit can freeze in small sections. Leave in the freezer for at least 4 hours. Mix together the blended pineapple, apple juice and orange juice in a jug and cool in refrigerator.
After allowing the pineapple and ginger mixture to freeze, take out of freezer and fill up quarter of the cocktail glass with the frozen mixture. Top up the glass until about two thirds with the cooled pineapple, orange and apple juice. Add a little ginger beer to add sparkle.
Sip slowly in the sun!
