I had gone for a pilgrimage to Velankanni for a few days. Missed you all so much… Now that I am back, thought of posting a wine recipe which I am sure you all will love till the last drop! 😀 This wine is very easy to make. It is made with Pineapple skin! The advantage is that it is done in 10 to 15 days and is ready for consumption! So next time you buy Pineapple, don’t throw away the skin 😆
What you need
Skin of one pineapple
Sugar -1 3/4 cup
Cold water -1 1/2 cup
Egg white -1 beaten
Dry ginger -1/2″ piece
Cloves -3
Cinnamon -1″ piece
Dry yeast – 1/2 tsp
Warm water – 1/2 cup
Method
Mix yeast with half a cup of warm water and keep aside. Take a Bharani or Ceramic jar and put all the ingredients into it. Add the yeast and mix well. Close the lid, cover it with a cloth and tie tightly with a string. Keep the jar in a dark place for 10 days. On the 11th day, strain the mixture through a muslin cloth. Do not squeeze. Pour the wine into a coloured bottle and close it tightly with cork. Place the bottle in a dark place till it is opened. The wine can be consumed after 4 days or from the 15th day onwards! Old beer bottles can be used for storing the wine. This recipe will yield about 650ml of wine. You can use the skin of 4 pineapples to make wine for Christmas and New Year 😛

Hey Lissie chechi

Hope you don’t mind, but I shared this post on my facebook page…I just skinned a pineapple, and had heard about making wine from the skin, when I google’d it, your post was first in line!! Thanks!
Thank you Robert for visiting my post! I appreciate your sincerity! 😀

Hi…Could you tell me how long is the shelf life of this pineapple wine?
Hi Becky,
The shelf life of the pineapple wine is an year or so…
But in my family, it won’t last more than two months 🙂
