Pineapple Liqueur

Pineapple Liqueur Recipe

Every time I get my hands on fresh pineapples, I have to make my homemade, adult only pineapple liqueur. The recipe doesn’t take too much fruit to make. On my last shoppin mission for seasonal pineapples, I bought fifteen for a $1 each. I made plenty of other things like my pineapple jam, carrot cake jam, and plain canning for a later date. No to mention cooking with it and eating it fresh.

The recipe is easy to make, like my other liqueurs. The worst part of the process is the wait. For the fruit to seep properly, it takes at least a month to sit in the vodka. But if you can hang in there, it is well worth the wait. Just be sure to plan ahead if you when making this for a special occasion. Give the recipe plenty of time.

Cost to make recipe.

Pineapples can be expensive if bought out of season. I priced the recipe to be made out of season which came to a whopping $7.92 for about three cups of liqueur or $0.33 per fluid ounce. When I purchase pineapples they are closer to $1.00 each. My cost comes down to $4.92 or $0.21 per fluid ounce.
