Pineapple Punch With Ginger Beer
This pineapple punch recipe is festive, fizzy, and easy to throw together. The ingredients are very straight-forward: pineapple juice, orange juice, lime juice, rum, and ginger beer. If you love citrus-packed cocktails or any type of cocktails made with ginger beer, you will love this drink!
Ingredients:
1 cup (8 oz) pineapple juice, preferably homemade (see ‘tips for success’ on how to make your own)
1/2 cup (4 oz) orange juice (from 1 to 2 oranges)
1/2 cup (4 oz) light rum
1/3 cup (3 oz) cup freshly squeezed lime juice (from 2 to 4 limes, depending on size)
32 to 34 ounces chilled ginger beer (ingredient note: I highly recommend Fever Tree brand, which is low in sugar, and comes in large, convenient 16.9 oz bottles)
ice
Optional Garnishes:
4 orange slices, halved, for serving
8 thin lime slices, for serving
small thin wedges of fresh pineapple
fresh mint sprigs
Directions:
- In a large pitcher, combine the pineapple juice, orange juice, rum, and lime juice. Stir until blended. Just before serving, add the ginger beer and stir until just combined. Pour into individual glasses and serve. If you’d like, garnish each glass with an orange slice, lime slice, wedge of pineapple, and mint sprig. Serve immediately.
