Snoop Dogg Gin and Juice Ingredients

• 1 part gin – Use any good quality gin you like. Snoop Dogg’s Indoggo gin works best, but any London Dry gin will do fine. If you don’t have gin, you can use vodka instead, but it won’t taste the same.
• 1 part green apple vodka – This is what makes this recipe special. The apple flavor adds sweetness and makes the drink smoother. You can find green apple vodka at most liquor stores. If you can’t find it, regular vodka with a splash of apple juice works too.
• 2 parts pineapple juice – Fresh pineapple juice tastes best, but canned juice works fine. Make sure it’s 100% juice, not a drink mix. The pineapple gives the drink its tropical flavor and natural sweetness.
• Club soda – This adds fizz and makes the drink lighter. You can use sparkling water instead. Some people like tonic water, but it has a bitter taste that changes the flavor.

Recommended Kitchen Equipment for This Recipe

1. Cocktail shaker – A basic shaker works great for mixing the ingredients before adding soda
2. Measuring cup or jigger – Helps you get the right amounts of each ingredient
3. Tall glasses – Highball glasses work best, but any tall glass will do
4. Ice cubes – Lots of ice keeps the drink cold and refreshing
5. Bar spoon – For gentle stirring after adding the club soda
6. Strainer – Optional, but helps if you want a smooth drink without ice chips

How To Make Snoop Dogg Gin and Juice

Step 1 | Add the Spirits

Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add one part gin to the shaker – about 1 ounce is typical, but the amount can be adjusted to taste. Next, add one part green apple vodka, using the same amount as the gin.

Step 2 | Pour in the Pineapple Juice

Add two parts pineapple juice to the shaker. For example, if using 1 ounce each of gin and vodka, pour in 2 ounces of pineapple juice. Cold juice straight from the fridge works best for flavor.

Step 3 | Shake the Mix

Place the lid on the shaker and shake everything together for about 10–15 seconds. Mix all ingredients well and chill them with the ice. Avoid shaking too hard or too long—just enough to combine everything.

Step 4 | Strain into Glass

Fill a serving glass with fresh ice cubes. Strain the chilled drink from the shaker into the glass, leaving space at the top for club soda.

Step 5 | Add Club Soda

Top off the drink with club soda, using about a 1:4 ratio of soda to the rest of the drink. This adds a refreshing fizz.

Step 6 | Stir and Adjust

Give the drink a gentle stir using a bar spoon or regular spoon. Avoid over-stirring to maintain the soda’s fizz. Adjust to taste – add more soda for a lighter version or more pineapple juice for added sweetness.

Tips for the Best Gin and Juice

1. Use lots of ice: Use lots of ice in both the shaker and serving glass to keep everything super cold.
2. Shake well: Shake the drink hard for at least 10 -15 seconds to properly mix and chill all the ingredients.
3. Pour soda gently: Add the club soda very gently at the end to keep the fizz intact.
4. Use cold pineapple juice: Use fresh, cold pineapple juice for the best tropical flavor.
5. Chill the glass: Chill the serving glass in the freezer for a few minutes before serving for an extra cold drink.
6. Avoid delays: Don’t let the mixed drink sit too long before adding club soda or it will get watery.
7. Taste before adding soda: Taste the drink before adding club soda to adjust the ratios if needed.
8. Choose quality spirits: Use quality gin and vodka for the smoothest taste.

Perfect Pairings for This Gin and Juice

You can serve Snoop Dogg Gin and Juice many ways. I like it most when sitting out on my back porch as the sun goes down. It goes well with little snacks, like chips or cold veggies with dip.

This drink is also great with spicy chicken or light salads. For a sweet snack, you can try cookies or a piece of pound cake.

For lighter meals, try serving it with fresh salads, fruit plates, or cheese and crackers. The green apple vodka makes it taste great with actual apple slices, so consider making a fruit and cheese board to go with it.

How To Store Leftover Properly

You really shouldn’t store this drink once it’s made because the club soda will go flat and it won’t taste good. But if you want to prep ahead, you can mix the gin, vodka, and pineapple juice together and keep it in the fridge for up to 2 days.

When you’re ready to drink it, just pour the mixture over ice and add fresh club soda. This way you get all the fizz without the flat taste.

Don’t try to freeze this drink because alcohol doesn’t freeze well in regular freezers. Plus, the pineapple juice will separate and get weird when it thaws out.

You’ll know the drink has gone bad if it smells sour or if the pineapple juice starts to ferment. Fresh pineapple juice only lasts about 3-5 days in the fridge, so don’t keep the mixture too long.

Snoop Dogg Gin and Juice Recipe FAQs

1. Can I make a big batch for a party?

Absolutely! Just multiply all the ingredients by how many drinks you want to make. Mix everything except the club soda in a big pitcher and keep it cold. When guests want drinks, pour the mixture over ice and top with club soda. This keeps the fizz fresh for each drink.

2. How strong is this cocktail?

This Snoop Dogg Gin and Juice Recipe has a moderate alcohol content, probably around 15-18% ABV depending on how much club soda you add. With 1 part gin (40% ABV) and 1 part vodka (40% ABV) mixed with 2 parts pineapple juice and club soda, it’s not as strong as some cocktails but definitely has enough alcohol to feel relaxing. It’s stronger than beer or wine but not as strong as drinking straight spirits.

3. Can I make it without alcohol?

Totally! Skip the gin and vodka, and use more pineapple juice or another juice you like. Add club soda for bubbles – it’s still refreshing and fun!

4. What if I don’t have a cocktail shaker?

No problem! You can use a mason jar with a tight lid, or even just stir everything together in a glass. The shaking just mixes it better and makes it colder, but stirring works too.

5. What’s the best glass to use?

I use a tall glass with ice – it looks nice and keeps it cold. Any glass works, though – just pick one you like!

The Snoop Dogg Gin and Juice Recipe brings together the best of classic cocktails with a modern twist. It brings chill California vibes in every sip.

Give it a try yourself – it’s easy and feels like summer in a glass. Grab your stuff, mix it up, and enjoy! Cheers to good vibes and great drinks!
