Now back to the Fresh Pineapple Mojito!

A mojito is traditionally made with white rum, sugar, lime, mint, and soda water.

For this pineapple version, we’ll be making a simple syrup to sweeten the beverage made from chopped fresh pineapple, coconut sugar, and water.

You can make the syrup ahead of time and refrigerate it until ready to use. Typically I only use a little sugar, but the amount depends on how sweet your pineapple is.

P.S. If you have leftover fruit, you can make Fresh Pineapple Salsa!

And look how easy it is to make a Fresh Pineapple Mojito!
