Ingredients

    • 1 mature pineapple (around 3 pounds)
    • 12 cups (3 liters) of water
    • 2 3/4 cups (600 grams ) of piloncillo or brown sugar, packed
    • 1 small stick of canela (about 3 inches)

Wash the pineapple completely, clear the stem and cut the rest in big pieces even with the rind.

Place the pieces of pineapple in a big container and add 8 cups (2 lt.) of water, piloncillo, the cinnamon and the cloves.

Cover and let sit for 48 hours.

Strain the resulting liquid and add the other 4 cups (1 lt.) of water. (Or if you prefer, add 1 cup (1/2 lt.) of ale and let rest another 12 hours.) Strain and add 3 cups (3/4 lt.) of water. Serve cold with ice cubes.
