Ingredients

For the Roasted Pineapple

  • 1 pineapple fresh
  • ¼ cup brown sugar approximately; use more if necessary

For the Cocktail

  • 2 tablespoons roasted pineapple chopped in 1/2 inch pieces
  • 3-4 mint leaves
  • 2 ounces vodka
  • 1 ounce pineapple juice
  • 1 lime juiced
  • 2-3 ounces ginger beer

  • roasted pineapple wedge

Instructions

To Roast the Pineapple

  • Preheat oven to 450 Degrees F.
  • Peel, core, quarter and slice pineapple into ½ inch wedges.
  • Place the pineapple on a baking sheet and sprinkle with the brown sugar. Roast for 10 minutes.
  • Remove pineapple from oven, turn the pieces over and sprinkle with more brown sugar. Roast for another 10 minutes.
  • Remove from the baking sheet to either waxed paper or parchment and let cool completely.
  • Dice half of the pineapple and leave the other half for a garnish (minus the pieces I just know you will eat!)

  • Fill two glasses with ice and pour the mixture over the ice.
