Ingredients:

• 1 medium pineapple, peeled and chopped
• 1-inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled and finely grated
• 3 cups cold water
• 2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup (optional, for extra sweetness)
• Juice of 1 lime
• Ice cubes
• Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

1. Place the chopped pineapple and grated ginger into a blender. Add 1 cup of cold water to help blend the ingredients smoothly.
2. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and the ginger is well incorporated. The vibrant yellow color and tropical aroma will start to fill your kitchen.
3. Pour the mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a large jug, pressing down with a spoon to extract as much juice as possible. Discard the pulp.
4. Add the remaining 2 cups of cold water to the strained juice and stir well. If you prefer a sweeter drink, mix in honey or agave syrup to taste.
5. Stir in the freshly squeezed lime juice, which adds a zesty brightness that perfectly balances the sweetness of the pineapple.
6. Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the juice over the ice. Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and a cooling effect.
7. Serve immediately and enjoy the harmonious blend of tropical flavors and the invigorating warmth of ginger.

Helpful Tips and Variations:

• If fresh pineapple is not available, you can use canned pineapple chunks in their juice. Just be sure to choose unsweetened varieties.
• For an extra refreshing twist, serve the juice in chilled glasses straight from the fridge.
• Add a splash of sparkling water to each glass just before serving for a fizzy version of this drink, perfect for celebrations.
• This juice makes a great base for kids’ parties. Set up a fun station where they can add their favorite fruits or herbs.

Storage and Substitutions:

• Refrigerate the prepared juice in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Stir well before serving each time.
• If ginger is too strong for your taste, reduce the amount or substitute with a milder version like ginger syrup.
• For a healthier alternative, swap honey or agave syrup with maple syrup or skip sweeteners altogether to enjoy the natural sweetness of pineapple.

Pairings and Complements:

• This Pineapple Ginger Juice pairs wonderfully with light snacks like cucumber sandwiches or fresh fruit salad.
• It complements tropical-themed meals such as fish tacos or grilled chicken with a mango salsa.
• For dessert, consider serving this juice alongside coconut macaroons or a simple lemon sorbet to enhance the citrus notes.
