If you’re a fan of a mojito, you probably know that there are so many delicious ways to enjoy a mojito.

Whether you’re drinking the classic, Perfect Mojito recipe or trying something fun like a Guava Minto mojito, you’re sure to love the smooth rum flavor mixing with the lime and any other fruits.

Some people (who me?) go crazy and even try twisting the mojito recipe with tequila!

It works!

So if you’re in a mojito frame of mind, be sure to give some fruity flavors a try.

Try those we just mentioned, and also be sure to check some out from our friends like these mojito recipes:

Ingredients you need to make a Pineapple Mojito Cocktail

Serves 2-4 (depending on size of drink desired)

  • ½ cup of fresh pineapple, cut into chunks
  • 1 tablespoon of sugar, or as desired
  • 6 mint leaves, chopped
  • ½ lime, juiced
  • 2 cups of pineapple juice
  • 2 cups of club soda
  • 1-2 ounces of rum
  • ice

We love using a marble mortar and pestle for this recipe, but a wooden one will do just fine too!

If you don’t have one, and want to add it to your favorite bar tools, here’s a similar marble mortar and pestle.

Can you make a pineapple mojito without alcohol?

Yes, you can enjoy a yummy non-alcoholic pineapple mojito.

Simply omit the rum and if you like the drink a bit sweeter, add a bit more pineapple juice.

If you like it a bit more fizzy, add more club soda.

Can I make the drink by the pitcher?

Absolutely!

Multiply the drink  by how many servings you need considering the size of your pitcher or beverage dispenser.

Then mix the drink with all ingredients except for the club soda.

It’s best to top off the drink with the club soda right when you serve it so it’s nice and bubbly.

Can I make a pitcher drink and still serve a mocktail?

Yes! It’s really easy.

You can either make up two batches, or if you only need a small amount of the mocktail, you can add the rum when you’re serving.

Then to make a mocktail for someone, pour their drink from the pitcher prior to adding the rum.

Just be sure to reduce the rum added to the pitcher by .5 to 1 ounce to keep the flavors balanced — unless of course you like your drinks strong.

How to make a Pineapple Mojito 

Cut your fresh pineapple into chunks.

If desired, also cut a few pineapple spears you’ll use later to garnish the drinks.
