Pineapple Cucumber Cooler

Summer is here, and it's getting warm—just the right time to try making different summer drinks. The Pineapple Cucumber Cooler is a delicious and refreshing treat. I like to add a hint of lemon, ginger, and mint to most of my fruit drinks, which gives them a nice kick. It's perfect for quenching your thirst on hot summer days.
For this drink, you can use fresh pineapple, but I used canned pineapple to make it easier. Most of the time, I have the ingredients on hand, and there’s not much prep work. I love how easy it is to combine everything in the blender.
I definitely plan on making this refreshing Pineapple Cucumber Cooler throughout the rest of the summer.

Notes

Tips:

These drinks are easy to prepare, and you can use whatever fruits you have available or your favorite fruits.
Blend the mixture without adding water and freeze it in ice cube trays for a refreshing twist.
