Crushed Ice: If using whole ice cubes, crush them first in the blender and set them aside in the freezer.
Add Pineapple & Lime: In a blender, combine the pineapple chunks (or crushed pineapple) and the lime juice.
Add Mint: Rip the mint leaves into small pieces and add them to the blender. Blend with the pineapple and lime until smooth.
Blend With Ice: Add the crushed ice to the blender and pulse a few times to mix it with the pineapple puree. If you prefer a smoother texture, blend until the ice is fully incorporated.
Assemble the Drink: Pour the mixture into serving glasses, leaving some room at the top for the club soda
Add Sparkle: Gently top off each glass with club soda, stirring lightly to combine without losing too much fizz.
Garnish and Serve: Garnish each glass with a pineapple wedge, mint leaf or lime slice. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
Store: Any leftovers can be kept in a tightly sealed jar or container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. It's best enjoyed fresh to maintain the effervescence of the club soda.
