Pineapple Peel Tea
Skin is in. Suddenly everyone is waking up to the health benefits of fruit peels. I stumbled upon this drink, tried it out and loved it. Peels of fruits are loaded with antioxidants and most of the nutrition is in the skin and just below the skin. So what better way to take advantage of this! This tea has a strong pineapple flavour and is very soothing and warming particularly on a winter afternoon. It takes about 15 to 20 minutes to brew it and sip it while it's hot.

Water - 3 cups
Method
Wash the pineapple well
Remove the peel with a part of the flesh
Boil water
