Pineapple ferments well.
@tyghebright I have three brands to try right now. This was a good one.
I love Tepache, which isn't really booze. It's about as alcoholic as kombucha (around 2%). But since I discovered it, it's my favorite refreshing beverage.
This is my favorite brand. More pineapple-y than others I've tried.
@tyghebright ohhh, they have a 12 mix pack.
Ordered!
@tyghebright shipping update, says I should get it tomorrow. Holy cow that was fast.
Looking forward to a yum weekend.

Pineapple chili sounds right up my street. 😋
Goes well with salty balls 😏
Not too spicy, just a nice hint on the front of the tongue, so still refreshing.
@Kurtroedeger I'm a big fan of chili with tropical fruit in general, but I've never had it as a drink. I'm going to see what they have at my local international supermarket. If not, I will have to find a way to make an approximation.
@tyghebright
There are instructions online for making tepache. It's basically fermenting the skin and core from a pineapple and adding whatever other spices and fruits you want.
This brand tastes a little more distinctly pineapple-y than some others I've tried. I suspect they either include more pineapple in the ferment, or add a touch of juice after.
@tyghebright Ah. So essentially a fruit beer or cider?
Cool. @Kurtroedeger
But very low alcohol, around 2%. Ready in three days.
@stueytheround @Kurtroedeger @lebrak
This looks like a good recipe.
@tyghebright @stueytheround @lebrak looks yum. I have a small homebrew set up that would make this easy to do. Just need to track down the piloncillo
@tyghebright Brilliant #StueyBookmark 😁
Thank you. @Kurtroedeger @lebrak
