It’s Mardi Gras time again, and you know what that means. It’s time to party with your crew in the name of beads, confetti, masks, and of course – cocktails! But if you’re like most of us and you can’t make it to New Orleans for the big celebration this year (oh how we wish we could have a powdered-sugar covered beignet while walking the french quarter), then throw a small get-together or simply make this special cocktail for yourself!

Like all of our recipes, this a low-calorie and low-sugar option that won’t derail your healthy lifestyle. Gather your ingredients and whip up this unique cocktail (or mocktail if you choose) to “laissez bon temps rouler” just like the Mardi Gras revelers do!

2 ounces pineapple-flavored vodka 

Juice of 1/2 lime

1 lime wedge

½ cup chopped fresh pineapple

 

In a large glass, muddle the pineapple at the bottom. Add ice, and fill with Cascade Ice, vodka and lime juice; stir. Garnish with a lime wedge. Enjoy!
