Preparation Steps
- Chop pineapple into small chunks and place in a large pot. Add 4 cups of water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let cool. Strain the mixture using a fine mesh strainer to separate the pulp from the liquid.
- In a separate saucepan, combine 4 cups of water and granulated sugar over medium heat. Stir until sugar dissolves and simmer for 3-5 minutes.
- In a large pitcher, mix the pineapple-infused water, cooled simple syrup, lemon juice, and cranberry juice.
- Taste and adjust flavors as needed, adding more syrup for sweetness or lemon juice for tartness.
- Cover pitcher and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
- Serve over ice and garnish with lemon slices, pineapple wedges, and mint.

Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Freeze lemonade in ice cube trays for up to 2 months for a tropical twist in other beverages.
