Pineapple Coconut Spritzers: pineapple juice served with coconut water and sparkling water makes for a light and refreshing drink that’s perfect for summer!
I love a good spritzer during the summer months! A tropical juice with a little fizz and I’m feeling like I’m in the tropics. The pineapple and coconut make this spritzer taste like a light piña colada, one of my favorite summer drinks. When we were little we would have pool parties at home, my mom would make frozen piña colada’s for all the adults and virgin ones for us. We used to enjoy our “fancy drink” so much that now anything pineapple coconut flavored is an instant reminder of summer and pool time. Get prepared for your summertime BBQ or gathering with this creative drink menu: these Pineapple Coconut Spritzers, Lychee Rose Mojitos, and refreshing Ginger Mint Spritzers. Your guests will be thanking you!
I’ve served this at parties before and love that it can be made in large batches. To make this ahead of time, mix the pineapple juice and coconut water beforehand and add your sparkling water once you’re ready to serve. The spritzer is sans alcohol but you can easily turn it into a cocktail by adding a little pineapple vodka or coconut rum. However way you decide to serve it, it’s sure to be refreshing for these hot summer days. Cheers to that!
