Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh pineapple chunks
- 1/4 cup dried hibiscus flowers
- 4 cups water
- 1/4 cup honey or agave syrup
- Juice of 2 limes
- Ice cubes
- Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)
Instructions
- In a small pot, bring the water to a boil. Remove from heat and add the dried hibiscus flowers. Allow to steep for 10 minutes, creating a rich, ruby-red infusion.
- While the hibiscus is steeping, puree the pineapple chunks in a blender until smooth. You should be able to smell the tropical aroma of fresh pineapple.
- Strain the hibiscus tea into a large jug, discarding the flowers. Stir in the honey or agave syrup until completely dissolved.
- Add the pineapple puree and lime juice to the hibiscus mixture. Stir thoroughly to blend. The combination of tropical sweetness and floral tartness should be enchanting.
- Pour the mixture over ice cubes in individual glasses, filling each one about two-thirds full.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves and serve immediately. The fresh mint will add a burst of refreshing aroma to every sip.
Helpful Tips and Variations
– If hibiscus flowers are unavailable, hibiscus tea bags can be a convenient alternative.
– For a sweeter drink, adjust the honey or agave syrup to taste.
– Serve in a chilled glass for extra refreshment, especially on a hot day.
– For a festive touch, add a slice of pineapple or an extra lime wedge as a garnish.
Storage and Substitutions
To store, refrigerate any leftover juice in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Stir well before serving as the ingredients may settle.
For substitutions, use pomegranate or cranberry juice if dried hibiscus flowers are not available. For a low-sugar option, replace honey with a natural sweetener like stevia.
Pairings and Complements
This Pineapple Hibiscus Juice pairs wonderfully with light, summery snacks such as fresh fruit salad, coconut macaroons, or grilled vegetables. For a hearty option, serve with a coconut rice dish or grilled chicken skewers.
