Ingredients: 1 whole Maui pineapple
1/2 cup mint jelly
2 tablespoons Maui vanilla sugar
1 bottle (11 ounces) sparkling water
4 sprigs mint
16 (or more) green peppercorns
2 ounces Vodka or Rum (optional)
Instructions: Place the mint jelly, vanilla, sugar, green peppercorns and sparkling water in a small sauce pan and bring to a boil. Simmer until the jelly and sugar are thoroughly dissolved. Remove from heat, cool and then chill in the refrigerator. Peel and core the pineapple. Dice the remaining fruit into 1-inch cubes and marinate with the chilled liquid and vodka. The pineapple will take on a nice green color. Serve in martini glasses garnished with mint sprigs.
