Pineapple is a favorite fruit for cocktails and is essential for a well stocked bar. You will often find it in tropical drinks in which it adds a feel for the islands and most of these cocktails are ideal for summer. You may also be surprised how well it pairs with dark spirits like the rye whiskey of the classic Algonquin Cocktail.

Pineapple juice is the most common form of the fruit in cocktails, although chunks of pineapple are often added to blended cocktails. One thing you will notice when shaking pineapple cocktails is that the drink tends to be frothier than other drinks. That is normal and the drink will settle soon after pouring it into the glass.

Below you will also find a collection of cocktails that use either pineapple-infused liquors (commonly vodka or rum) or pineapple liqueurs.
