Default Excel Pivot table - need to not remember old data which has been r

Often, I remove data from the details used in a pivot table, but the pivot
table seems to "remember" the old data. When filtering in the table, it
lists all of the values which are no longer in the data.

How can I fully refresh the pivot tables so as to remove this old information?

Sometimes, have many pivot tables in a given file and surely don't want to
re-create all of them.
