Ingredients


1/2 cup chopped pineapple
9 oz Copra’s Sparkling Coconut Nectar
1 oz lemon juice
2 oz sake
2 tbsp thyme
Ice


Instructions


Step 1. Start by finely chopping the fresh pineapple and thyme. Ensure that the pineapple pieces are small enough to infuse the cocktail with their natural sweetness, while the thyme releases its aromatic flavors.
Step 2. In a jar or cocktail shaker, combine the chopped pineapple, thyme, lemon juice, and sake. The lemon juice will add a zesty touch to the cocktail, balancing the sweetness of the pineapple. Sake, a traditional Japanese rice wine, will introduce a light, distinctive flavor to the mix.
Step 3. Close the jar or cocktail shaker securely and shake it well for about 10-15 seconds. This vigorous shaking will blend all the flavors, allowing the pineapple and thyme to infuse their taste throughout the cocktail.
Step 4. After shaking, strain the mixture into a cocktail glass. This step will ensure that the cocktail is smooth and free from any pineapple or thyme pieces, providing a refined sipping experience.
Step 5. Fill the cocktail glass with ice, which will keep your drink cool and refreshing. To add an extra touch of visual appeal and flavor, garnish the cocktail with a couple of lemon slices, which complement the citrusy notes of the drink.
Step 6. Now comes the star ingredient – Copra's Sparkling Coconut Nectar. Pour 9 oz (about one bottle) of this delightful sparkling coconut nectar over the cocktail. The effervescence and unique taste of coconut nectar will bring a special twist to the traditional cocktail experience.
Step 7. To complete the presentation, garnish the cocktail with a lemon peel and a sprig of thyme. The lemon peel will release its oils, enhancing the drink's fragrance, while the thyme will add a touch of elegance and earthy aroma. Now, take a sip, savor the delicious blend of flavors, and enjoy a truly happy gut cocktail!

Whether it's a sunny afternoon or an evening gathering, the Pineapple and Thyme Happy Gut Cocktail is the perfect companion for elevating your mood and indulging your senses. Cheers!
