I’ve put down at least 2 gallons of this Pineapple Water with Fresh Mint over the last two weeks and there’s already another batch chilling.

We usually stick to water around here. I rarely buy soda or even juice. I love to make fresh juice but to make an entire pitcher of straight fruit juice would take an absurd amount of fruit. I wanted something a little more refreshing but still flavorful. Pineapple Water is perfect since you add quite a bit of water to fresh pineapple juice then just sweeten to taste. The fresh mint adds a subtle mint flavor (the more you add and the longer it sits, the more you’ll taste it) and isn’t a necessity to the recipe, so don’t let a lack of mint on hand prevent you from making it.

I also add a little sweetener which I find it needs. Truvía^® now has has a nectar that is perfect in this recipe! I was SO excited when I learned about this new product. I already used both the Truvía^® Baking Blend and the Brown Sugar Blend for pretty much everything, but this is the first time they’ve come out with a liquid product that I can easily add to my cold drinks, too! Truvía^® Nectar blend has a consistency similar to honey but with 50% less calories so you only need to use half as much. It’s perfect to sweeten this Pineapple Water!

Making Pineapple Water is a snap. Just throw chopped, fresh pineapple into a blender until it’s smooth. Run it through a fine-mesh strainer, add water and sweeten to taste! It makes about a regular-sized pitcher so you can serve about 6-8 glasses. I love the mint flavor; it’s subtle but adds that extra something. You can place the water and mint in the pitcher and steep it overnight before you add the pineapple juice for a stronger flavor. It makes a perfect summer drink!
