Begin by peeling and coring the pineapple. Chop it into small chunks for easier blending.
In a blender, combine the pineapple chunks, fresh lime juice, palm sugar, and water. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth, about 1 to 2 minutes.
Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a large pitcher to remove the pulp for a smoother texture (optional if you prefer pulp-free drinks).
Taste the strained liquid and adjust the sweetness by adding more palm sugar if needed. Stir well to dissolve.
Add the fresh mint leaves into the pitcher and gently muddle them with a wooden spoon to release their aroma but not break them up entirely.
If using coconut water for extra tropical flavor, stir it into the mixture now.
Refrigerate the pineappleade for 20 to 30 minutes to chill, or serve immediately over ice cubes in tall glasses.
Garnish with additional mint leaves or pineapple wedges if desired before serving.
