A tropical and refreshing lemonade made with fresh pineapple. I find that in-season pineapples tend to be very sweet so little or no sweetener is needed. Adjust to taste.
Ingredients
- pineapple: 1 piece (fresh)
- water: 4 cups
- lemon juice: 0.5 cup (freshly squeezed)
- packet sweetener of your choice: 1 piece (to taste)
- ice cubes: 2 cups
