Celebrate National Mojito Day with Honey!

For Grilled Pineapple:

• 1 T honey




• 1 T rum




• 2 limes, juiced




• 1 pineapple, peeled and cut into 16 wedges

For Mojitos:

• 4 limes, cut into eighths




• 8 tsp. honey




• 1 cup fresh mint




• 3/4 cup rum




• ice




• club soda

Directions:


In a shallow dish, mix together the honey, rum, and lime juice. Add the pineapple and turn to coat. Let sit 5-10 minutes.

Heat your grill to medium-high. Add the pineapple and cook 1-2 minutes on each side, or until the fruit softens slightly and golden brown grill lines appear. Remove from heat and let cool.

Roughly chop half the grilled pineapple. Divide the chopped pineapple among 8 collins glasses. Add 2 lime wedges, 1 tsp. honey and 10 mint leave to each glass; muddle to combine. Stir in the run, then fill each glass with ice. Top with club soda.

Garnish with remaining grilled pineapple, lime wedges, and mint leaves.

So whether you’re throwing a mojito fiesta or brewing up your favorite iced tea for a backyard cookout, honey makes your beverages shine like gold!
