How to Make Aloha Fruit Punch
- In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup of water and the sliced ginger root.
- Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat and simmer for 3 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let steep for 5 minutes. Strain the ginger liquid into a separate bowl, discarding the solids.
- In a large pitcher, combine the strained ginger liquid, guava juice, lemon juice, and pineapple juice.
- In a separate saucepan, combine the remaining 3/4 cup of water and the sugar.
- Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves completely and the syrup simmers for about 1 minute. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
- Add the cooled sugar syrup and the diced pineapple to the juice mixture.
- Stir gently to combine. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow flavors to meld and the punch to chill thoroughly. Serve over ice and garnish with pineapple wedges or mint sprigs (optional).
