Ingredients

1 pineapple 4 cups diced
2 inches ginger root
2 limes

Instructions

Wash the produce. Peel and core the pineapple, then roughly dice into 1-inch cubes. Peel the limes. Cut away any soft or mushy spots on the ginger. Cut the produce into pieces small enough that they can fit through the juicer chute.
Juicer: Turn the juicer on. A few pieces at a time, add the pineapple, ginger, and lime through the chute of the juicer. Process according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Blender: Add the pineapple, ginger, and lime to the blender. Add up to one cup of water to the blender to help it process. Turn the blender on and slowly turn it to full speed. Blend for 3-5 minutes, or until it is smooth and creamy. Strain and press the mixture through a fine sieve or cheesecloth to separate the pulp from the juice.
Stir the juice, then serve right away in glasses, or store it covered in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Don’t leave the juice at room temperature for longer than 2 hours, per USDA.

Notes

For more flavor: Soak the ginger root in cold water for about 10 minutes before juicing for optimal juice extraction!

Recipe yield: This recipe yields about 24 ounces (3 cups) of juice, but the exact amount will depend on the efficiency of your juicer and the water content of the produce you use.

Storage: This juice will last for 3-4 days when covered and stored in the refrigerator, per USDA.

Freeze it for later by pouring leftover juice into ice cube trays or silicone trays in smaller portions. Once frozen, transfer the cubes to a freezer-safe, airtight bag or container for up to 3 months. Then defrost the cubes as you want them, or toss one or two into smoothies or hot tea for extra flavor.

The juice will separate as it sits, so give it a quick stir before serving.

Optional Ingredients: Add 1 medium diced cucumber, 1-2 peeled oranges, 1 inch of fresh turmeric, and/or 10-15 fresh mint leaves for extra flavor and nutrition!
