Instructions
Add the guava, pineapple, water, beet juice (if using), and lemon juice to a high-speed blender. Blend until completely smooth. You may need to blend in two batches depending on blender size.
Place a fine mesh sieve over a large bowl or pitcher. Pour the mixture through and use a spoon to press out as much liquid as possible, removing the guava seeds and fiber. Use the back of a spoon to help press out the liquid.
Stir in the agave and taste. Add more water if you prefer a lighter, more refreshing drink.
Transfer to juice bottles or a pitcher and refrigerate. Serve over ice and enjoy within a few days.
