Pineapple Bourbon Lemonade is a simple drink that satisfies sweet, tart, and rich flavors.

The mixture of pineapple and bourbon works really well because the sweetness cuts the bourbon. The lemonade creates a tart and fresh factor in the drink to balance the booze and sweet pineapple flavors.

Typically, I have all three of these ingredients on hand and it is easy to quickly put together. I love to use fresh pineapple juice, but canned juice with a simple store bought lemonade works great.

Pour the drink over some ice, or make extra servings to serve to a group. This is an easy drink to adapt if you aren't drinking alcohol, or don't care for bourbon. Vodka, whiskey, or brandy are great substitutes.

A fun serving option! I have made this drink before, leaving out the alcohol, let it sit in the freeze for about 30 minutes and used a fork to shave the ice. I added to a cup and then added the alcohol to make a yummy slushie version of this drink.

Ingredients

Bourbon - typically bourbon has vanilla, oak, and caramel notes making it a very rich liquor.
Pineapple Juice - fresh is best for Pineapple Bourbon Lemonade, but canned works just as well.
Lemonade - I stay away from concentrates and use a lemonade like Simply Lemonade for drinks.
Lemon Wedges - both garnishes are optional, but the add a nice little treat to the drink.
Fresh Pineapple

Instructions

In a large glass, mix pineapple juice, bourbon, and lemonade. Stir.
Fill a pint glass with ice.
Pour drink over ice.
Garnish with lemons and pineapple.
