Pineapple syrup

Step 1

First, you have to remove the rind of the pineapple and make sure to remove the core, too. Then, cut the fruit into small cubes of about half an inch in size.

Step 2

Put the pineapple into a saucepan and add the sugar. Gently mix both until the sugar covers all pineapple pieces.

Step 3

Let the mix sit overnight so the sugar can pull the juices out of the fruit.

Step 4

The next day you will see pure pineapple syrup separating from the fruit.

Step 5

Add water and salt and stir gently until all the sugar dissolves. But remember: don't boil the mix as you only need the sugar to dissolve.

Step 6

Finally, strain your syrup into a sterilized bottle and store it in the fridge. You can add a bit of Vodka, as needed, to it to make it last longer.

Step 7

Use it up in two weeks (4 weeks when using Vodka).
