Ingredients
  • 1 whole pineapple, cored and sliced into chunks
  • leaves from 5 stalks of cilantro (about 1/2 cup)
  • juice of 1 grapefruit
  • 4 cup water
  • agave nectar, to taste
Directions
  1. Step 1: In a blender, combine 1 whole pineapple (cored and sliced into chunks), the leaves from 5 stalks of cilantro (about 1/2 cup), the juice of 1 grapefruit and 4 cups water. Pulse until well-blended.
  2. Step 2: With a fine mesh strainer (or strainer lined with cheese cloth), strain mixture into a pitcher or punch bowl. (Blending and straining can be done in two batches.) While I find the juice pleasantly balanced in sweetness, taste the agua fresca and add agave if you want it a little sweeter. Pour over ice.
