Refreshing Pineapple Lemonade

Ingredients

• 1 cup fresh lemon juice (about 6-7 lemons)
• 4 cups pure pineapple juice (fresh or cold-pressed without added ingredients)
• 1 cup near-boiling water
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 4 cups very cold water

Instructions

1. Juice the Lemons: In a large glass measuring cup, juice the lemons (strain to remove any pulp or seeds).
2. Mix Lemon and Pineapple Juice: Pour the lemon juice into a serving pitcher (make sure your pitcher can hold at least 12 cups). Stir in the pineapple juice. Set aside.
3. Make Simple Syrup: In a large glass measuring cup, add hot water and stir in sugar until dissolved and the syrup is clear.
4. Combine Simple Syrup: Stir the simple syrup into the pitcher.
5. Add Cold Water: Stir in the remaining cold water a little at a time, tasting until you get your desired sweetness. (Remember, when serving over ice, the ice will water it down a bit. I like mine on the sweeter side because of this.)

Enjoy!
