Pineapple Tea

When I was in Brazil, we would have pineapple tea in the afternoon. Sometimes warm, sometimes cold. I personally love the crispness of this tea as a cold drink in a wineglass on a hot summer afternoon.

Pineapple tea is very easy to make, delicious and has many benefits: The most impressive benefits of pineapple tea include its effects on the following:
