LEMON SIMPLE SYRUP:
- 2 cups filtered water
- 1 organic lemon, sliced thin
- ½ cup organic cane sugar
MOCKTAIL:
- 3 cups frozen pineapples (See Notes)
- Cooled lemon simple syrup
- 6 ounces Ritual Zero Proof Rum alternative
- 2 Tbsps raw honey (See Notes)
- Pinch of ground allspice
OPTIONAL GARNISH:
- Lemons slices
- Pineapple slices
- Coconut flakes, crushed for rims
- Fresh thyme or rosemary sprigs
TO MAKE THE LEMON SIMPLE SYRUP:
In a saucepan over medium-high heat, add together all ingredients (stirring them to combine) and bring to a boil, about 1-2 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and simmer for another 5 minutes or so. Remove from heat and let it cool completely. Discard lemon slices.
BLEND EVERYTHING TOGETHER:
In a high-speed blender, add together the frozen pineapples, cooled lemon simple syrup, rum alternative and honey, and blend until smooth and has a slushy consistency. Add more sweetener if needed.
ASSEMBLY: For each drink, fill the glass with the frozen margarita mocktail and top with your favorite garnishes: sliced lemons, pineapples slices, coconut flakes, fresh thyme or rosemary sprigs, if desired.
Sip and Enjoy!
- SWEETENER: Instead of honey, you can always use maple syrup.
- SERVING SIZE: This recipe makes two mocktails. To make additional mocktails, simply double or triple ingredients, depending on need.
- ALCOHOL: If you'd like to spruce things up with alcohol, feel free to add 1 ounce of rum, vodka, etc.
- RIM(S): To make things more fancy, I love to add coconut flakes, sea salt or cane sugar to the rim of my glass(es). To do this, you'll simply need to wet the rims a bit with a lime wedge and then turned facing down, slightly moving it around in the coconut flakes, sugar or salt until covered.
- FRESH PINEAPPLES: You can feel free to use freshly sliced pineapples in these mocktails, but you'll need to add about 2 cups or so of ice to make things more of a frozen consistency.
