Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 12 cups pineapple skin or 1 large pineapple
  • 14 cups water
  • 2-3 inches ginger
  • 1 tsp turmeric powder or 1 inch turmeric root

Method
 

  1. If you’re using a whole pineapple, thoroughly scrub and wash your pineapple. I had some pineapple skin in my freezer that I will be using.
  2. Fill a large pot with water, pineapple peels, ginger, and turmeric, and bring to a boil.
  3. Allow pineapple peel to boil for 5-10 minutes or longer for a more concentrated brew.
  4. Remove from heat and allow to cool for 5 minutes.
  5. Serve hot or cold. Sweeten with sugar or honey.

Notes

Notes for Making Pineapple Skin Tea 

  • Feel free to improve your tea by adding cloves, garlic, or lime juice. 
  • If you don’t have any turmeric powder, then freshly grated turmeric root can be used. 
  • To reduce the amount in this recipe, cut the ingredients in half. I had a lot of pineapple skin, so I made a huge batch.
