Add some extra spice to this tropical Saxbys Ginger Beer inspired mocktail with a little fresh ginger and peppercorns. Unexpected yes, but an amazing combination with sweet pineapple and fresh mint.

Ingredients

Fresh ginger

1 tbs, 2cm piece

Fresh mint

cup(s)

Peppercorn

½ tsp, 20

Pineapple

500 g, (1/2 a pineapple) peeled, cored, finely chopped

Diet fruit-flavoured soft drink

660 ml, pineapple

Instructions

  1. Grate ginger and squeeze flesh to extract 1 tsp juice. Place juice, mint leaves, peppercorns and half the pineapple in a large plastic jug. Using a rolling pin, crush pineapple mixture to combine flavours.
  2. Divide crushed mixture between 4 glasses. Add crushed ice and remaining pineapple. Pour over diet pineapple. Serve with extra mint sprigs.
