CHEF’s Tips

The acidity of the pineapple can vary depending on the fruit. To balance the flavor of your Pineapple Drink, add sugar or sweetener gradually, tasting until you reach the ideal point. If the pineapple is too acidic, a pinch of baking soda can help to soften it. For a more intense aroma, try lightly caramelizing some pineapple pieces before adding them to the blender. This enhances the fruit’s flavor and adds a special note to your drink. Remember that the quality of the water used also influences the final taste, so always use filtered or mineral water. The Pineapple Drink is an excellent option to refresh and hydrate, enjoy!
