Equipment

Ingredients

2 oz fresh pineapple juice
4-5 fresh mint leaves
1 oz simple syrup
3 oz prosecco or sparkling wine
Club soda to top
Ice cubes

For garnish: pineapple wedge and mint sprig

Instructions

Place mint leaves in the cocktail shaker and gently muddle them.
Add pineapple juice and simple syrup to the shaker.
Fill the shaker with ice and shake for 10-15 seconds until well chilled.

Strain the mixture into a champagne flute or tall glass filled with ice.
Pour in the prosecco slowly to maintain bubbles.
Top with a splash of club soda.

Garnish with a pineapple wedge and fresh mint sprig.

Notes

Store fresh pineapple juice in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Make simple syrup by heating equal parts sugar and water until dissolved, then cool before use.

For best results, chill all ingredients before mixing.

Replace prosecco with sparkling water for a non-alcoholic version.

The drink tastes best when served right away while the bubbles are fresh.

Tasting Notes

This bright and refreshing cocktail balances sweet and tart flavors. Fresh pineapple brings natural sweetness, while mint adds a cool, herbal note.

The drink starts with a crisp, tropical aroma from the pineapple and fresh mint garnish. Each sip delivers a light, bubbly texture from the sparkling water.

Primary Flavors:

Sweet pineapple
Cool mint
Light citrus
Gentle bubbles

The mint flavor stays subtle and doesn’t overpower the pineapple. A squeeze of lime adds just enough acidity to keep the sweetness in check.

This spritz tastes best when served very cold. The flavors become more pronounced as the drink warms slightly in the glass.

The alcohol taste remains mild and balanced. Club soda provides a clean finish that makes this cocktail easy to sip on warm days.

Serving Temperature: 35-40°F (2-4°C)

Food Pairings:

Light appetizers
Grilled seafood
Fresh fruit
Cheese plates

Substitutes

You can swap ingredients in the Pineapple Mint Spritz to match what’s in your kitchen. Each change creates a slightly different but still tasty drink.

Replace pineapple juice with mango nectar or passionfruit juice for a tropical twist. These juices keep the sweet and tangy balance of the cocktail.

Fresh mint can be swapped with basil leaves. The herbal notes work well with the fruit flavors. If you don’t have fresh herbs, skip them entirely.

Club soda works instead of prosecco for a non-alcoholic version. For a different bubbly option, try ginger ale or sparkling water with a splash of lime.

Alternative Spirits:

Vodka instead of gin
White rum for a tropical feel

Tequila for a fresh take

Don’t have simple syrup? Mix equal parts sugar and warm water until dissolved. Let it cool before using.

A lime wedge makes a good garnish if you’re out of pineapple chunks. Fresh orange slices work too.
