FAQs
Can I make this mocktail ahead of time?
It’s best to prepare the mocktail just before serving to keep the mint fresh and the flavors vibrant. If you prepare it in advance, keep it refrigerated and stir before serving.
Can I use frozen pineapple instead of juice?
Yes, blended frozen pineapple works well as a substitute for pineapple juice and adds extra chill to the drink. Just blend it smooth before mixing with the other ingredients.
