Pineapple Gin Cocktails for Happy Hour — Ranked by Data

Not every recipe needs this ingredient. Some drink styles are built without it from the start — they use a different sweetener, a different structure, or no sweetener at all. This list surfaces recipes in the WhatDrink database that do not include this ingredient as a confirmed recipe component.
