Pineapple Lemonade Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 cup fresh lemon juice (about 4-6 lemons)
- 1 cup pineapple juice (fresh or store-bought)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
- 4 cups cold water
- Ice cubes
- Optional: fresh pineapple slices, lemon slices, or mint leaves for garnish
Instructions:
- Make the simple syrup:
- In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup sugar with 1/2 cup water. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Mix the juices:
- In a large pitcher, combine the fresh lemon juice, pineapple juice, and cooled simple syrup. Stir well.
- Add water:
- Pour in the cold water and stir to combine. Taste and adjust the sweetness or tartness by adding more sugar or lemon juice if needed.
- Chill:
- Refrigerate the lemonade for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Serve:
- Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the pineapple lemonade over the ice. Garnish with fresh pineapple slices, lemon slices, or mint leaves for a tropical touch.
Tips:
- Add sparkle: Replace half of the water with sparkling water or club soda for a fizzy version.

- Freeze it: Pour the lemonade into popsicle molds and freeze for a refreshing treat.
