Pine Mint Shrub
Pine Mint Shrub
A refreshing way to repurpose the pineapple juice, left in the bottom of a tin of pineapple rings after pizza night.
Whilst tempting to drink straight form the can, we can all do without the blood sugar spike, and can alternatively create enough of this refreshing shrub soda for the whole family to enjoy.
