Pineapple & Coconut Cocktail combines pineapple juice and coconut milk with lime and optional maple syrup for a simple tropical drink.

The liquid ingredients are mixed directly in a pitcher, so the recipe comes together without a blender or cooking.

Each glass is finished with a strawberry set on the rim and a mint leaf. Those garnishes add fresh color and aroma to an otherwise very simple drink.

Ingredients

• 3 cups pineapple juice
• 1 cup coconut milk
• 2 teaspoons maple syrup, optional
• 1/2 teaspoon lime juice
• 4 strawberries, for garnish
• 4 fresh mint leaves, for garnish

Method

Combine the pineapple juice, coconut milk, optional maple syrup, and lime juice in a pitcher and mix well. Divide among 4 glasses. Slit the strawberries so they can sit on the rims and place one strawberry and one mint leaf on each glass. Makes 4 servings.
