Pineapple Lime Agua Fresca

You might have seen yesterday's Strawberry Lime Agua Fresca recipe.  Today, we have Pineapple Lime Agua Fresca.  Same idea, totally different flavor.
In a lot of drinks, you can get away with using store-bought juice.  Not this one.  One of the best things about an agua fresca is the fact that it tastes like you just took a bite of fruit.  You've got to go fresh on this one.
