Hi bloggers and Amazing Drinks community! Today I’m going to share a fermented drink made from the pineapple peels left over from making pineapple and cucumber juice earlier. You might already be familiar with this drink—it’s called Tapache. This traditional Mexican drink has a unique flavor: tart, slightly sweet, and refreshing. Alright, let’s get started
Ingredients:
pineapple peels
1 cinnamon stick
5 cloves
1 thumb-sized piece of ginger
50 grams of Javanese palm sugar
500 ml water
ice cubes
Steps:
Clean the pineapple peels thoroughly
Drain
Prepare the cinnamon stick, cloves, ginger, and palm sugar
Place the pineapple peel into a container
Add the cloves
Add the cinnamon stick
Add the ginger slices
Add water until the container is full
Add the Javanese palm sugar
Press down on the pineapple peel until it is submerged in the water
Cover the container loosely and let it sit for 48 hours or longer up to 3–4 days is also fine
Once fermented, foam will appear on the surface of the container
After 48 hours, open the container
Prepare ice cubes, then pour the Tapache into a glass
