DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS FOR KIWI-PINEAPPLE COCKTAIL

STEP 1: PREPARE THE INGREDIENTS

Before you start mixing, it’s important to properly prepare all the ingredients.

• Peel the kiwi: Take a ripe kiwi, peel it carefully with a knife or a vegetable peeler, and then cut it into medium-sized pieces to make it easy to blend. These kiwi pieces will form the fruity base of your Kiwi-Pineapple Cocktail.
• Prepare the pineapple juice: If using a whole pineapple, slice it and remove the tough core, then press the pieces in a juicer or blender to obtain 100 ml of juice. If using ready-made pineapple juice, make sure it’s fresh and contains no added sugars, to ensure the pure taste of your Kiwi-Pineapple Cocktail.

STEP 2: BLEND THE COCKTAIL BASE

In this step, you will create the base of your cocktail by blending the fruits and other ingredients together.

• Add the kiwi, pineapple juice, and coconut milk: Place the kiwi pieces, pineapple juice, and coconut milk in a blender. Use a high-speed blender to obtain a smooth mixture. The coconut milk will add a velvety texture and balance the tartness of the kiwi and pineapple in this cocktail.
• Add the sugar cane syrup (or honey): To add a touch of sweetness, pour in 15 ml of sugar cane syrup. If you prefer a more natural version, you can use honey, which will add a subtle sweetness and nutritional benefits. Adjust the amount according to your taste.
• Blend until smooth: Close the blender and blend for about 20 to 30 seconds until everything is perfectly mixed and smooth. You should have a slightly creamy, homogeneous mixture.

STEP 3: PREPARE THE GLASSES

While your cocktail is still in the blender, prepare the glasses for presentation.

• Add ice cubes to the glasses: Fill each glass with ice cubes to keep the cocktail cool. You can use regular ice cubes or larger ones if you prefer them to melt more slowly, while still keeping your drink chilled.
• Pour the mixture into the glasses: Once the ice is ready, pour the blended cocktail into the glasses, filling them about three-quarters full.

STEP 4: DECORATE AND SERVE THE KIWI-PINEAPPLE COCKTAIL

The final touch to make this cocktail even more appealing.

• Decorate with a slice of kiwi: Take a slice of kiwi and elegantly place it on the rim of the glass or float it on top of the drink. This will add a beautiful green color and a touch of sophistication to your Kiwi-Pineapple Cocktail.
• Serve immediately: This cocktail should be enjoyed as soon as it’s prepared to capture its full freshness and tropical flavors.

WHY CHOOSE A KIWI-PINEAPPLE COCKTAIL?

This cocktail doesn’t just delight with its delicious and refreshing taste, it’s also a great source of vitamins and minerals. Kiwi is particularly rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, which help boost the immune system and combat cellular aging. Pineapple is also an excellent fruit, rich in bromelain, an enzyme that aids digestion and has anti-inflammatory properties. As for coconut milk, it provides a creamy texture and a subtle sweetness, while being a source of healthy fats.

In addition to its nutritional benefits, this cocktail is a true taste sensation. The sweetness of the coconut milk balances the acidity of the kiwi and the zest of the pineapple, creating a perfect harmony on your palate. It is, therefore, an excellent drink to relax, enjoy the moment, or offer your guests a tropical experience.
