This Pineapple Detox Drink for Weight Loss is all over the internet, and for good reason, it’s both delicious and great for boosting fat loss!
It does take a little extra time as you need to wash, peel and then boil the pineapple rind/skin. But it’s so worth it, and you will be able to make many servings later on in the week from doing this step just once!
With fat burning ingredients (like ginger, pineapple and cinnamon) and bloat reducing ingredients (like cucumbers) you will see the results quickly. Just be sure to pair this drink with some light exercise and healthy eating.

You will need a whole pineapple to make this drink. If you are a regular here at Lose Weight By Eating, you know I like to keep it simple with frozen and cubbed fruit. But it just won’t work here.
The reason you need a whole pineapple is because you need to make the pineapple skin water, which requires, well… the pineapple skin.

How to Make Pineapple Weight Loss Drinks
I like to make the pineapple skin water ahead of time. I make it as soon as I get home from the store so it’s well chilled for me in the morning.
And while I’m boiling the pineapple rinds, I cube the pineapple and freeze it. You don’t have to freeze it, but I like how the frozen fruit chills the drink a bit.
How to Make Pineapple Weight Loss Drink:
- To make the pineapple rind water, first wash your pineapple very well and then slice off the rind. Add the pineapple rind and the water to a large pot and boil for 20 minutes. Then strain through a fine mesh strainer and chill in the fridge.
- To make the pineapple detox drink combine the pineapple, cucumber, ginger, lemon juice, honey, cinnamon and pineapple rind water to a blender.
- Pulse to get things moving, then blend until smooth.
- Pour into a large glass and serve.
