Perfect Tropical Martini
When I went to Hawaii, there were so many drinks to try and this pineapple martini was one of my favorites. So much so, that I knew I needed to recreate it so I could have it whenever I wanted! This cocktail recipe combines pineapple and lime juice to mix the perfect amount of sweetness and sour!
The best part about this recipe is that you can make it in a single glass for yourself or a pitcher! Whether you’re having a party or wanting to be transported to a tropical vacation, this martini is perfect for you!
Ingredients Needed
- Vodka: I used Titos, but use your favorite vodka that you have on hand.
- Triple Sec: Orange liqueur mixes perfectly with the other ingredients!
- Lime Juice: Fresh lime juice is always best.
- Pineapple Juice: Use fresh pineapple juice or 100% juice (without additives)
- Garnish: Put cherries, a pineapple wedge on the rim of the glass, limes.
Variations
- You could add a splash of coconut rum for a more tropical feel.
- If you prefer sweeter drinks, add a splash of grenadine or simple syrup
- Vanilla vodka is a great flavor substitute
How to make Pineapple Drink
- To make one cocktail: pour liquor and juice into a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake then strain into a cold martini glass. Garnish with pineapple or slice of lime.
- To make a pitcher: stir liquor and juice in a pitcher. Shake with ice before pouring each drink. Garnish with pineapple and a maraschino cherry.
Expert Tips
- A pitcher will serve 6-8 people, so make a double/triple recipe depending on how many people you know you’ll be serving! Here’s how to double a recipe!
- You could replace the vodka with gin if that is what you have, but I love a good vodka martini.
- This would go great at a party with a strawberry daiquiri!
