Homemade Pineapple Beer is a refreshing South-African traditional drink. Non-alcoholic or leave the Beer to ferment longer to make an alcoholic version
2Pineapplesleaves chopped off and the peel scrubbed clean
24cupsLuke Warm Water6 liters
5cupsWhite Sugar
1cupRaisinsslightly bruised
2 ½tInstant Dry Yeast
Instructions
Chop the Pineapples, peel and all, roughly
Place all the ingredients, except the Yeast, in a large, clean plastic container – I used a 10 liter bucket
Sprinkle the Yeast over – leave a minute and then give the mixture a good stir-through
Use a piece of Tulle (or something similar) to close over the top of the bucket – secure with string or a rubber band – DO NOT CLOSE WITH A LID – as the mixture will ferment
Leave in a dark place (cabinet is great) for 72 hours – stirring twice a day
Strain and bottle the beer, but only put the caps on after 12 hours – keep chilled and serve as is with ice
Notes
*** It is a good idea to boil the water and then let cool to luke warm before using*** Please also read our Disclosure/Terms of Service
