A FEW USEFUL DETAILS
Before your
next pour.
Pineapple acidity and fiber vary. A little texture is normal in this fruit-purée version.
Remove the tea bag at the end of its directed brew instead of extending the infusion while you prepare the fruit.
The measured water is the brew volume before any reduction. Adjust a later preparation deliberately rather than assuming the photographed color is a target.

Can I prepare the finished drink far in advance?
