Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups Pineapple juice
  • 0.5 cups Fresh pineapple chunks
  • 3 cups Ginger beer (non-alcoholic or alcoholic, based on preference)
  • 4 scoops Vanilla ice cream
  • 1 tablespoon Honey (optional, for extra sweetness)
  • 4 sprigs Fresh mint leaves

Directions

Step 1

1. In a blender, combine the pineapple juice and fresh pineapple chunks. Blend until smooth. If you prefer the drink to be extra smooth, strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove pulp.

Step 2

2. Taste the pineapple puree, and if desired, add honey for extra sweetness. Mix well.

Step 3

3. Divide the pineapple puree evenly into four tall glasses (about 1/3 cup per glass).

Step 4

4. Add one scoop of vanilla ice cream to each glass.

Step 5

5. Slowly pour 3/4 cup of ginger beer into each glass over the ice cream and pineapple puree. The mixture will foam up, so pour slowly to avoid spilling.

Step 6

6. Garnish each float with a sprig of fresh mint for a touch of color and aroma.

Step 7

7. Serve immediately with a straw and spoon, and enjoy the refreshing combination of flavors!
