Summer Cocktails: Blended Pineapple Mojito

There are a couple things I really enjoy about a vacation–having someone else do the cooking once in a while and summer cocktails. We spent this past week in the Florida Keys celebrating our 10th anniversary, and I got to enjoy both, someone else cooking and summer cocktails.

Granted, there are plenty of waterfront restaurants serving tropical cocktails, but personally, I would prefer to have mine in the pool.  And that’s exactly what I did.

Since our AirBnB had a blender, I experimented with a few different cocktail combinations and this one was an early favorite.

Blended Pineapple Mojito

Much like a normal mojito, I’ve used mint, lime, and rum, but unlike the traditional mojito, I’ve added fresh pineapple, blended the whole concoction, and added a little lemon-lime soda (I prefer 7up for this).
