Pineapple Beer - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 pineapple
1/2 cup raisins
5 cups sugar
2 teaspoons dry yeast
1 1/2 gallons warm water (7 litres)

Preparation

Discard pineapple stalk.
Wash unskinned pineapple well and chop up with skin and all.
Place all ingredients into a large container with a lid and stir to mix well. Cover and leave where it can be undisturbed.
The fermentation will start immediately. Stir twice a day over the next 72 hours. Don't worry - it is supposed to smell like fermented fruit! By the third day this smell will subside to a lovely beery, cidery smell.
Strain through a sieve or cheesecloth and bottle.
