Here it is again: Pineapple Margaritas (6Feb)
Since I've had three requests for them this
week, and since the archives appear to be
permanently broken, here they are again:
They're actually quite easy.
In a tight sealing jar, place: 2 pineapples
(trimmed and cubed), 2 vanilla beans, 1/2
cup of brown sugar, and 2 litres of tequila
(or do half of these ingredients). Leave
for
at least a week, stirring every so often.
The margarita:
In the blender--
1 12 oz. can lime juice
1 12 oz. can pineapple tequila
4 chunks pineapple
fill to top with ice
Blend until smooth and frozen, you may need
to add more ice, depending on size of
blender, etc

REC: Pineapple Margahooties
You'll be hooting after a couple of these. I posted this recipe at Gail's (RIP) years ago. It truly is amazing how it has spread (google pineapple margahootie and you'll see how many people have borrowed it for their own).
Pineapple Margahooties
PINEAPPLE TEQUILA
2 pineapples, trimmed & cubed
2 vanilla beans
1/2 cup brown sugar
3 liters tequila
THE MARGAHOOTIE
12 oz frozen lime juice concentrate
12 oz pineapple tequila
4 pineapple chunks
ice
Put pineapple tequila ingredients into a tight sealing jar. Leave for at least a week, stirring every so often.
Make margahootie: put first three ingredients in blender and fill to top with ice. Blend
until smooth and frozen.
You can top up your jar of pineapple tequila with more tequila as you take it out, but the taste does get diluted. Tequila to pineapple is just a suggestion. I have a large suntea jar and after I put the pineapple, vanilla, and sugar in the jar, I fill'er up.

And another similar libation: Pumpkin Pietinis
Put freshly carved and cubed pumpkin into a sun tea jar (roughly 1 qrt). Add 5 cinnamon sticks, 6 cloves, a couple slices of peeled ginger, 3 cardamom pods, a split vanilla bean, 1 cup of brown sugar, and top it up with cheap vodka. Let sit for a couple weeks. Serve on the rocks or shake with ice, strain, and serve straight up.
Adjust the spices to suit your taste. You can also add a blade of mace or an allspice berry or use candied ginger in place of fresh. A strip of lemon or orange peel can also be added.
These are a great way to get your Thanksgiving Dinner started off with a bang.
Pumpkin Pietini and Cream: Use the vodka and cream as you would to make a white russian. You can also layer this which is fun.

There are different varieties of pineapples but I think you got Sugarloaf
It is not the one that is grown for canning- that one is sturdier and is more suited to mass production. The Sugarloaf pineapple is really delicious- a golden color and very sweet and juicy.
There is another that is almost white inside but also very tasty and tiny too- the cocktail pineapple (I don't know the name of it) Most of those go to the fancy restaurants and hotels so we don't see them often in markets.
The "red plum sprinkle stuff" is Li Hing Mui powder- Japanese preserved and salted plums.
