Equipment

  • Cocktail shaker
  • Muddler
  • Jigger
  • Strainer
  • Highball glasses

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup fresh pineapple juice
  • 4 oz gin
  • 1 oz lime juice
  • 1 oz simple syrup
  • 2 oz tonic water
  • Ice cubes

Instructions
 

Gather Your Ingredients

  • First, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment ready. Fresh pineapple juice makes a big difference in flavor, so I recommend juicing a ripe pineapple.

Prepare the Cocktail Shaker

  • Fill the cocktail shaker halfway with ice cubes. This will help chill the drink as you mix it.

Add the Ingredients

  • Pour the fresh pineapple juice, gin, lime juice, and simple syrup into the cocktail shaker. Use a jigger for precise measurements to ensure a balanced cocktail.

Shake Vigorously

  • Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds. This will ensure the ingredients are well-mixed and chilled.

Strain and Serve

  • Strain the mixture into highball glasses filled with ice cubes and tonic water. The filter will catch pulp or ice shards, leaving you with a smooth cocktail.

Garnish and Enjoy

  • Garnish your Pineapple Juice Gin Cocktail with a slice of pineapple and a sprig of mint. This adds a lovely visual appeal and a hint of extra freshness.
