Tips

The natural yeasts on the outside of the pineapple will help with fermentation.
Let the mixture sit on the counter for a couple of days, loosely covered.
You'll see some bubbles when it's fermenting.
Serve over ice with a lime, or in cocktails.
You can adjust the amount of piloncillo depending on how sweet you want it.
You can adjust the amount of spices depending on how spicy you want it.
This recipe uses 2 waheo chilis for a sweet and spicy kick, but it's not traditional.
The piloncillo should be grated to dissolve faster in the water.
The pineapple top should not be added to the mix.
