Ingredients & Substitutions
I love using fresh pineapples because they pack a lot of flavor! If you can’t find fresh, you can use unsweetened canned pineapple, but watch out for added sugars. Ginger is a powerhouse for digestion and adds that lovely spice. For the jalapeño, you can substitute with a milder pepper if you’re not into the heat.
Tips & Notes
- •I love to chill my sparkling water beforehand so it stays nice and fizzy when mixed in.
- •If you want to make this ahead of time, prepare the pineapple mixture and add the sparkling water just before serving to keep it bubbly.
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I swap out the pineapple for mango, and it’s just as delightful!
- •If you want a bit of creaminess, try adding a splash of coconut milk for a tropical twist.
Storage & Freezing
This cooler is best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers, store it in the fridge in an airtight container for up to a day. Just remember to add more sparkling water before serving to revive the fizz!
