Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 5 or 6

Ingredients

5 cups ice, plus more for the glasses
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup loosely packed fresh mint, plus sprigs for garnish (optional)

Preparation

  1. Puree the pineapple in a blender until smooth. Pour the puree through a fine sieve into a bowl; discard the solids. Return half the juice to the blender; blend with half the ice and sugar.
