Pineapple: This tropical fruit is loaded with vitamin C, antioxidants, and the enzyme bromelain, which is celebrated for its ability to aid in digestion and reduce inflammation. Pineapple also contributes to hydration, making this drink a perfect choice for replenishing fluids.
Ingredients
2 cups fresh pineapple chunks
1-inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled and sliced
1 cup cold water or coconut water for an extra tropical twist
Ice cubes (optional)
Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Start by peeling and chopping the pineapple into chunks. Fresh pineapple is preferred for its sweetness and nutrients, but you can also use frozen pineapple if fresh isn’t available. Peel and slice the ginger. Fresh ginger will give a more potent flavor, but you can adjust the amount based on how spicy you like your drink.
