Pineapple punch is a refreshing tropical drink and will remind you of a beach vacation instantly.
Pineapple punch is made up of 5 ingredients Pineapple chunks , lemon juice , slice of ginger ,sugar and few mint leaves. I have used all fresh ingredients to make this punch, but you can also use the concentrates or crushes available in the market .
Pineapple being a summer fruit, I like to use it fresh and blend it to make this energizing cooler.
Pineapple punch is perfect for barbecue parties or any beach parties that you plan to host or enjoy this summer .
For those of you who like to have some fizz ,you may replace the water with club soda or ginger ale too .
Pineapple punch can be made in advance and kept under refrigeration until serving..I prefer to
consume it on the same day as the freshness remains intact and the drink doesn't get the extra tartness from lemon and pineapple when left for an extra day.
If you are using canned pineapples make sure that you adjust the level of sugar while you prepare the punch as canned pineapples are soaked in sugar syrup which make them extra sweet .
