- Prepare the Peels: After consuming the pineapple, save the peels. Make sure they are clean and free from any pesticides or dirt.
- Boil the Ingredients: In a large pot, bring the water to a boil. Add the pineapple peels and cloves to the boiling water.
- Simmer: Reduce the heat and let the mixture simmer for about 20 to 30 minutes. The longer you simmer, the more pronounced the flavors will be.
- Strain and Serve: Remove from heat and strain the mixture to remove the peels and cloves. Serve the tea hot, or let it cool and enjoy it chilled.
Tips and Considerations
- Use Organic Pineapples: If possible, use organic pineapples to avoid pesticide residues in your tea.
- Sweeten Optionally: If the tea’s natural taste is too strong, sweeten it with a little honey or stevia.
- Storage: You can refrigerate the tea and enjoy it cold. It makes a refreshing drink for hot days.
This tea is a delightful way to make use of the whole pineapple while reaping significant health benefits. Whether served hot or cold, pineapple peel and clove tea is both therapeutic and refreshing.
