Time 15m

Yield 1 cocktail (with 750ml juice leftover)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pineapple , skin removed and chopped
1 bunch of parsley
3 limes , juiced
1 cucumber , chopped, slices reserved for garnish
¼ - ½ green jalapeño
agave syrup , to taste
50ml Mezcal

Steps:

  • Make the jugo verde by whizzing the pineapple, parsley, lime juice, cucumber and 200-250ml water in a blender. Add the jalapeño (the amount will depend on how spicy you'd like it) and blend. Adjust the sweetness by adding some agave syrup. Strain into a jug and chill - this makes about 800ml, use for another round of cocktails, or freeze the leftovers.
  • Mix the mezcal with a dash of agave syrup, 50ml of the jugo verde and some ice cubes in a cocktail shaker. Shake and strain into glasses with a slice of cucumber for garnish.
