Pineapple Coconut Daiquiri in A PINEAPPLE CUP!!
Wanna know the easiest way to wow your dinner party guests? Pineapple cups! These are so easy to make. I'm so excited to show you how! And I'll give you two yummy daiquiri recipes to fill your cups with, but spoiler—anything that's blended with rum is gonna be wonderful!
I researched all the different ways to remove the inside of the pineapple and there are methods that don't need a tool. But this tool works AWESOME, and
I found one on Amazon for only $7.99
with prime shipping—so I would highly recommend it (I bought mine locally and it was a lot more than $7.99). It makes it super easy and quick to remove all the pineapple while keeping the skin intact and it even slices it for you.
Tip—be sure not to go too deep. On one of my pineapples (I made two, just to practice) I punctured a hole in the bottom on accident.
When you are done, you just pull the slices out...
and cut the core out, and you have a perfect pineapple cup!
Next I cut my slices into fourths and froze them. When making smoothies or frozen cocktails, I try to freeze some of my ingredients so I don't have to use any ice and it has more flavor.
One last thing...cut a little v out of the top and you have a place for your straw!
