Healthy Pineapple Peel Ginger Tea Cleanse | Fights Inflammation & Has Amazing Health Benefits

Welcome to another episode of Blonde in the Kitchen. Today we'll be making a pineapple peel ginger tea cleanse. Each ingredient in this super drink contains antioxidants which makes your skin glow and supplements your body with nutrients that flush your system of any harmful toxins. A key ingredient in this drink is pineapple because it contains an enzyme called bromelain. Bromelain fights inflammation, aids in digestion, weight loss and it also boosts your immune system. When cleaning your pineapple don't make the mistake of throwing away the top and the stem of the fruit because they contain high amounts of bromelain. You can find the most bromelain in the core of the fruit and the peel. We find the easiest way to remove the peel and the core is to cut the pineapple in half. Here you can see the core of the fruit which we will remove by cutting the pineapple into quarters. We're going to remove the peel and separate the core from the flesh of the fruit. Reserve a couple pieces of the flesh itself for the drink and the rest can be eaten separately. We're also adding green apple for its sweet taste and wonderful health and beauty benefits. It naturally detoxifies the body and boosts your metabolism. Ginger works as a powerful superfood that is packed with amazing health benefits. Some being reducing body fat, helping your digestive system work better, lowering blood pressure and blood sugar. To make this tea add your pineapple peels, the stem, the top and the core of the fruit to a pot. Boiling the pineapple will break down the bromelain and make it easier to digest. Add a couple pieces of the fruit as well for some added sweetness. To this add your ginger slices, green apple and two cinnamon sticks. Oiled cinnamon sticks like the other ingredients in this tea help reduce inflammation which reduces pain in the joints. It lowers blood sugar and helps to burn fat which means it's a perfect addition for this drink. When you've added all of your ingredients to the pot add filtered cold water enough to cover the fruit and bring this to a boil. Lower to a simmer for two hours adding one to two cups of boiled water to make up for any water that evaporates. After the two hours have passed add three tablespoons of loose leaf green tea and let it steep for four to five minutes. Adding the green tea will help both your body and your mind. It prevents heart disease, helps with weight loss, makes your skin look beautiful and it also has been proven by studies that it promotes healthy brain function. After it steeps remove the pineapple peel, ginger, apple and cinnamon and pour your tea through a sieve. This will help remove any of the small particles left over from when it was boiling. Let it cool completely. You can store this drink in glass or plastic bottles for up to four days in your fridge. Depending on the day we enjoy 6 to 12 ounces of this tea cleanse daily. You can even store it in your freezer as ice cubes and have them as a refreshing snack. If you do give this cleanse a try let us know what you think in the comment section down below.
