Pineapple Agua Fresca with Blueberries
Pineapple agua fresca with blueberries is a spin on classic agua de piña. Blend fresh pineapple chunks and blueberries with water and sugar, strain, serve over ice, and start sipping!
Equipment
Ingredients
- ½ pineapple cut into large chunks
- ½ cup fresh blueberries
- 1/3 cup sugar or to taste
- 6 cups water divided
- Ice
Instructions
- Prepare ingredients. Peel and chop half of a pineapple into large chunks
- Feel free to use the core or leave it out if you’d like.
- Blend. Working in batches, process the pineapple chunks, blueberries, sugar, and 4 cups water on medium setting for 60 seconds.
- Strain and mix. Strain the blueberry and pineapple water mixture through a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a pitcher to remove any pulp. Stir in remaining 2 cups of water.
- Serve and enjoy. Serve over plenty of ice and enjoy chilled.
A Note from Lola
RECIPE VARIATIONS
- For an additional boost of vitamin C, add a handful of fresh strawberries or blackberries.
- Feel free to use your favorite sweetener or skip the sugar altogether. I like to use pure cane sugar, simple syrup, agave, or dates to sweeten my aguas frescas.
