Pineapple Southside
Mix up this delightfully refreshing cocktail that uses citrus flavors to complement the Botanist's 22 wild Islay botanicals.
How to Make Pineapple Syrup: Combine ⅔ cup of diced pineapple including the core, ½ cup raw sugar and the rind of one lemon, diced (leftover after juicing). Cover tightly and let the mixture stand at room temperature, stirring occasionally, until sugar has completely dissolved. Strain out fruit scraps through a fine-mesh stainless steel strainer set over a bowl. Press and mash the fruit with a flexible spatula to extract as much syrup as possible. Store your pineapple syrup in a glass jar in the fridge for 2-4 weeks.
