Instructions

Peel pineapple. If you plan to drink your pineapple water on its own, without any other flavoring or sweetener, leave a little bit of flesh on the rinds so the flavor is more concentrated.
Boil. Put the pineapple peels in a large saucepan and fill it with water. Let it boil for 15 minutes.
Cool down. Let the infused pineapple water cool down if planning to drink it as a cold drink. Then transfer it to a bottle and then to the fridge; otherwise you can serve it hot as a cup of tea.
