Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 pineapple, peeled, cored, and coarsely chopped
- 1 2-inch knob ginger, peeled and diced (2 ounces or 60 grams)
- 1 lime, juiced
- 1 cup (236 ml) simple syrup (optional)
- 5-6 cups (1-1½ liters) water
- Ice (as needed)
Instructions
- Prepare Pineapple: Peel, core, and chop the pineapple into coarse pieces suitable for blending to ensure a smooth juice consistency.
- Prepare Ginger: Scrape the skin off the ginger knob using a spoon, then dice it finely before adding it to the blender, which infuses the juice with a fresh spicy aroma.
- Add Lime and Sweetener: Squeeze fresh lime juice into the blender, add the optional simple syrup for sweetness, along with 2-3 cups of water, then puree all ingredients until smooth.
- Adjust Consistency and Serve: Add more water to the blender to reach your preferred juice consistency, prepare a pitcher or glasses with ice, pour the juice over the ice, and enjoy immediately for optimal freshness.
Notes
- The simple syrup is optional; adjust sweetness to taste or omit for a naturally sweet and tangy juice.
- Use fresh ginger for the best flavor; powdered ginger is not recommended for this recipe.
- This juice is best served fresh but can be stored refrigerated for up to 24 hours in an airtight container.
- Add sparkling water instead of plain water for a fizzy variation.
- Adjust water quantity to make the juice thicker or lighter according to preference.
