Notes
I don't add sugar to my juice but depending on the tartness of the pineapple, you may like to add to yours.
Often, a pinch of salt elevates the juice up a notch.
If you want something a little different, get some fresh coconut milk and pour some on top of the juice. Mix it with a spoon and drink the ultimate island vacation drink.
