How to make the Pineapple Stars Garnish
First we need to cut slices from a pineapple.
Place the pineapple on the cutting board on its side. Then using your knife, cut 1 inch thick pineapple disks perpendicular to the board.
Pick out which sizes of the stars you want to use for your garnishes. I picked the middle three star sizes for mine.
Next, place the star cookie cutters on top of the pineapple disks and press down into the pineapple to cut the shape.
Pop out the pineapple stars from the cookie cutters, and tada you have pineapple stars!
All that’s left is to cut a small incision where you want the pineapple to sit on your cocktail glass and your all set.
Super cute & easy right!
