Easy Pineapple Ginger Juice Recipe
You guys, summer is here! The hot temperature outside these days is not our friend at all! So, one of our solutions is to make all the fruit juices, smoothies, ice creams and popsicles We can make. At least, that makes the heat enjoyable because we can always cool off with some homemade refreshing treats!
One of such treats is this juice made out of sweet pineapple and spicy ginger. When we saw pineapples for the cheap at the grocery store the other day, we knew we had to buy many. So we grabbed some and stuffed into our cart. Oh, how we like el cheapo!
Especially at this time of the year, lots of fruits in this part of the world are so cheap! It’s our favorite time to go grocery shopping because we buy allllll the fruits we can.
So, back to this Pineapple Ginger Juice. The main ingredients here are pineapple and ginger, as the name of the juice stipulates. But we also add a lemon for a nice citrusy kick and more nutrition!
Talking about nutrition, it is loaded with vitamin C, B1, B6, and lots of other nutrients! It is also contains lots of anti-inflammatory properties and supports a healthy immune system.
How it comes together
This would quickly become one of your favorite recipes. To make your Pineapple Ginger Juice or Pineapple Ginger-Lemon Juice, all you need to do is:
- Add pineapple chunks to a blender.
- Add the fresh ginger root, squeeze in the lemon juice, add a little water, and blend in a high speed blender until smooth.
- Once you blend, pass it through a fine sieve to remove the extra pulp. We really like this sieve which we got from Amazon. You can also pass it through a cheesecloth to remove the pulp.
Tip: If you have a juicer, you can use it to juice the pineapple and ginger, then squeeze in the lemon juice. We have a juicer, but we often skip using it because that stuff is a lot of work to clean. We would only use it when we have TONS of juice to make.
Once you make your homemade pineapple ginger juice, it’s time to enjoy! We love having a cup of juice or two right away! It is a great digestive aid, helps alleviate muscle soreness, and supports a strong immune system. So many benefits!
This juice is so tasty. Fruity and sweet, and there’s no added sugar! It contains antioxidant properties and is worth making again for serving with meals like breakfast.
This Pineapple Juice is enjoyed in a number of West African countries like Cameroon, Nigeria. Jamaicans enjoy it too. But no matter where you are from, you should try it. It is a real treat!
