1½ ounces crushed pineapple
1 ounce pineapple juice
1/4 cup crushed ice
Brown sugar to taste (no more than one tablespoon)

Put all the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth (about 30 seconds). Pour into chilled glass. Garnish with an orange slice, a pineapple wedge, or a maraschino cherry.

1 ounce fresh lime juice
3 ounces frozen strawberries in syrup (or fresh, if available)
1 teaspoon sugar
Crushed ice
What to do:
Fill a blender with crushed ice. Add lime juice, strawberries, and sugar. Blend until smooth, then pour into a chilled glass. Garnish with an extra strawberry (if you have one) or an orange slice.
3. White Sangria
Perfect for your next dinner party or just as a refreshing drink for whenever you need a tasty drinks break.

1 cup pink grapefruit juice
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 bottle club soda (750 milliliters)
Pink grapefruit slices

In a large jug, combine all three juices. Refrigerate. Just before serving, add the soda water and grapefruit slices (and other fruit, if you’d like). Makes about 12 servings.
