Ingredients
This easy pineapple mocktail recipe is good anytime with only five ingredients (and lots of ice)!
- Pineapple Juice
- Orange Juice - Freshly-squeezed, if you can. Not from concentrate, if you can't.
- Unsweetened Coconut Cream - Make sure you are using coconut cream and NOT "cream of coconut", which is heavily sweetened. For a slightly lighter drink, you can also use the thick solidified portion of a can of coconut milk.
- Lime Juice - Lime juice is not an ingredient of a traditional pain killer. For the non-alcoholic version, we found that fresh lime juice added an extra touch of acidity that helped to balance this drink and make it less cloying.
- Nutmeg - A touch of freshly grated nutmeg finishes this drink with a classic flavor. Don't skip it!
Fun Fact: Pineapple juice makes this drink rich and frothy after shaking. It provides a creamy mouthfeel and the perfect platform for a dash of grated nutmeg!
