Description

This Refreshing Pineapple Lemonade is a vibrant and tropical beverage perfect for hot summer days. Combining freshly blended pineapple chunks with tangy lemon juice and a touch of sweetness, this lemonade is both hydrating and delicious. Served chilled and garnished with fresh mint and fruit slices, it makes a revitalizing drink that’s easy to prepare in just 10 minutes.


Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh pineapple chunks
  • 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 4–6 lemons)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 3 cups cold water
  • 1 cup ice cubes

Garnish

  • Pineapple slices
  • Lemon wedges
  • Fresh mint leaves (optional)


Instructions

  1. Blend Ingredients: In a blender, combine the pineapple chunks, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and granulated sugar. Blend until smooth to create a flavorful base for your lemonade.
  2. Strain Mixture: Pour the blended mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a large pitcher to remove the pulp if you prefer a smoother texture.
  3. Mix with Water: Add cold water to the strained mixture and stir well to combine all flavors evenly.
  4. Taste and Adjust: Taste the lemonade and adjust the sweetness by adding more sugar if necessary to suit your preference.
  5. Add Ice: Add the ice cubes into the pitcher just before serving to keep the lemonade chilled.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Garnish with pineapple slices, lemon wedges, and fresh mint leaves for an extra refreshing touch. Serve immediately and enjoy chilled.

Notes

  • For a sparkling twist, replace half of the cold water with chilled sparkling water for a fizzy lemonade.
  • You can freeze pineapple chunks ahead of time and blend them directly to create a slushier, cooler texture.
