Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups pineapple juice
- 1 cup water
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 piece cinnamon stick
- 1 inch fresh ginger (peeled and sliced)
- 4 pieces whole cloves
- 0.25 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 per serving optional garnish: pineapple wedge or cinnamon stick
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the pineapple juice, water, and honey. Stir well until the honey dissolves.
Add the cinnamon stick, fresh ginger slices, whole cloves, and ground nutmeg to the saucepan.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 10-12 minutes to allow the spices to infuse into the liquid.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and strain the drink through a fine mesh sieve to remove the ginger, cloves, and cinnamon stick.
Stir in the lemon juice to add a refreshing tang to the drink.
Serve the drink warm in mugs or let it cool and refrigerate to serve over ice later.
For an optional garnish, add a small pineapple wedge or a cinnamon stick to each serving before serving.
