In a blender, combine the pineapple chunks and cucumber slices.
Add lime juice if you want to enhance the flavor and mint leaves for a refreshing touch.
Blend the ingredients until you achieve a smooth consistency. If the mixture is too thick, you can add water in small increments until you reach your desired thickness.
Strain the mixture using a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove pulp. However, keeping the pulp adds fiber and nutrients.
Pour the juice into glasses over ice cubes if desired. Garnish with a slice of cucumber or a sprig of mint for an extra touch of elegance.
Notes
If your juice is:
