Instruction 

step no 1 :Selecting the Pineapple: 

 Choose a ripe pineapple. A ripe pineapple has a sweet smell, tends to be a little soft to the touch, and it is normally yellow in colour. 

 step no 2: Preparing the Pineapple: 

Rinse the pineapple under running water till you are sure that all the dust  are all washed off of it.

 Lay it on the cutting board and remove the crown part of the pineapple and the base also. 

step no 3 : Cutting the Pineapple: 

 To make peeling easier, you should slice the pineapple into four parts, lengthwise. 

 Take out the core from each part simply by cutting the round part. The core is the stalk-like, very hard to chew, central part of the fruit found while eating pineapple. 

 step no 4 :Chopping the Pineapple: 

 Pineapple should be cubed into pieces that you will be easily able to blend in your blender or to chop in the juicer. 

step no 5: Blending the Pineapple: 

 Pour the pineapple pieces into the blender. Small amount of water can also be added in order to assist in blending the mixture. 

 Blend until smooth. If juicing, move on to the next step. 

step no 6: Straining the Juice: 

 Strain the mixed pineapple through a fine mesh strainer moving the pulp around to extract all the juices into a large bowl or a pitcher. Spoon the pulp so that much of the juice is squeezed out from it. 

 Sweetening the Juice (Optional): 

 Taste the juice. If the taste is not sweet enough to suit your preference, add up to two tablespoons of sugar or honey and dissolve. Customize the sweetness to your taste.
