Spicy Piñarita Mocktail
The following recipe and photography were provided by local blogger Carolyn Hodges of The Dinner Shift.
Whether you’re embracing Dry January or simply exploring the world of non-alcoholic beverages, this Spicy Piñarita Mocktail is a must-sip!
Full of refreshing tropical flavors and a hint of smoky spice, it’s refreshing, delicious, and incredibly simple to prepare. Thanks to a few shortcut ingredients from Heinen’s, you can whip it up in a few minutes with very little prep.
This recipe calls for mudding fresh fruit into the bottom of the glass, so I opted for Heinen’s Fan Favorite fresh-cut fruit from the Produce Department to save time peeling and chopping. In addition to being convenient, Heinen’s Produce Associates cut and package this fruit in-store daily using the whole fruits that are displayed in the department, so freshness is guaranteed.
The true showstopper, though, is Parch’s non-alcoholic cocktail mixer. Their Spiced Piñarita flavor has a balanced blend of sweetness, smokiness, and margarita-inspired tang from agave and pineapple. It’s the perfect way to spice up your non-alcoholic cocktail game!
