Blender method

- Add everything to a high-speed blender with the lime and 100ml of cold water.
- Blend on high for 30 to 45 seconds until completely smooth.
- Pour through a nut milk bag or fine-mesh sieve into a jug, squeezing the pulp to get every last drop, then serve.
Notes
Pineapple carries bromelain, an enzyme that helps break down protein, and ginger has long been used to settle an unsettled stomach. The blender method keeps a little more of the fibre, so it comes out thicker. Thin it with a splash of cold water if you prefer it lighter.
