This drink takes a little more prep, but it will be well worth it when you’re sitting in the sun holding this.
Ingredients
Servings: 8
- 1¼ cups sugar
- 1 pineapple, peeled, cut into 1½-inch pieces
- 6 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
- 2 tbs Organic Berries Galore
- 1 jalapeño, thinly sliced into rounds
- 5 sprigs mint
- 1 lime, thinly sliced into wheels
- 2 cups tequila (optional)

Preparation
- Bring sugar and 1 cup water to a boil in a medium saucepan and cook, stirring, until sugar dissolves, about 3 minutes. Add pineapple, reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let
sit 30 minutes to infuse syrup with pineapple flavor. Strain into a small
bowl; stir in vinegar. Cover and chill shrub until cold, about 30 minutes. Cover and chill pineapple pieces until ready to use. - Meanwhile, cold brew Berries Galore: place 2 tbs tea into a 1-Litre jar and fill with cold water. Cover, shake and place in the fridge for 3-4 hours.
- Set aside 8 slices jalapeño and 8 pieces pineapple for serving. Stir mint, lime wheels, tequila (if desired), lime juice, remaining jalapeño and pineapple, 1 cup shrub, and 1 cup tea in a large
pitcher and chill at least 1 hour. - Serve in ice-filled rocks glasses garnished with
reserved jalapeño slices and pineapple pieces.
