How to choose ingredients for pineapple juice with mint

To prepare pineapple juice with mint, choose a pineapple with a scent perceptible at the base, full bark and no extensive areas softened or liquid. The skin color varies according to the fruit, so the smell and state of the pulp are more useful references. After cutting, the pulp should be firm, with uniform color and pleasant aroma. If the core is soft, it can enter the blender into smaller pieces; if it is too rigid, remove the fibrous part. Prefer green mint leaves, firm and without dark spots. Discard wilted or viscous leaves. Wash your hands, knife, board, jar and glass of the blender. Clean the pineapple in running water before peeling, as the knife crosses the outer surface. Wash the leaves one by one. When using a sanitizer, choose only one regular food product and follow the dilution and time reported on the label. Vinagre does not replace this process. Then keep fruit and leaves in clean utensil until preparation.

Texture and pineapple juice service with mint

Without straining, pineapple juice with mint becomes full-bodied and preserves the pulp. Coated, it has smoother texture and less foam. Both options work; the choice depends on the desired result. Decide before adding ice, because dilution makes it difficult to evaluate consistency. Try the cold drink before you sweeten it. A mature pineapple can dispense with any supplement. If the flavor is concentrated, add 50 ml of water, press quickly and try again. If the mint gets intense, prepare a small portion only with pineapple and water and mix slowly. To avoid this problem in another preparation, reduce the leaves or beat time. Use cold ingredients and put the ice directly into the cups. Thus, pineapple juice with mint does not get watery inside the jar. Shake before serving again, as the separation between liquid and pulp is natural. To combine the drink with simple meals, see also Summer menu with fresh preparations. Prefer to prepare and consume on the same day, keeping the container closed and refrigerated when there is a need to anticipate.

Changes

To use sparkling water, beat the fruit with 300 ml of common water and complete with 300 ml of sparkling water only when serving.
For a change of flavor, replace up to half the water with coconut water and taste before sweetening.
To add ginger, start with a thin slice of approximately 2 g and adjust in another preparation.

Conservation

Common questions

Do you need to strain the pineapple juice with mint?

Nope. Without strain, the drink gets more full-bodied. Coar is a texture choice and can be made with medium sieve before serving.

How can we prevent mint from leaving bitter flavor?

Use leaves in good condition, remove thick stalks and add mint only at the end, beating for 10 to 15 seconds.

Can I make the juice in advance?

The best result is immediate. When necessary, keep the drink in a clean, closed and refrigerated container, stirring before serving on the same day.
