Pineapple Juice

Thirst Quencher's

At first i was scared to buy a whole pineapple and cut it myself,because of its thorny exterior but somehow i gained the courage the bought the pineapple n cut it myself. One good thing i didnt get hurt that much as i was holding the pineapple with a kitchen towl n succeessfully cut it with perfection.

After a good evening meal of Pav bhajji i was feeling thirsty and i whipped up this juice in a jiffy. It made me feel light after a heavy meal.




Ingredients:

1 cup of chopped pineapple pc's
1 cup of cold water
a splash of club soda
1/2 a lemon juice
1 tsp sugar(optional)


Method

In a blender put all the ingredients and blend for a couple of minutes

Then put a strainer on top of a bowl and pour this juice onto a strainer. This is done to make sure that you seperate the pulp from the juice.

Once the juice gets collected into a bowl pour it into a glass and garnish with a pineapple piece.

note:-I remove the pulp in this juice because i am not a fan of the pineapple pulp and it causes irritation inmy throat.So if u like the pulp u can leave it as it is.
