I bought a pineapple last week and it was very good. I took some pieces
and soaked them in rum. After a few hours, it was OK, but not great.
Let it sit a couple of days and tried it again. wow, it was really
good. Sweet, tasty, but none of the bite of liquor.

Yesterday I put even more pineapple in rum but I'm going to let it sit
for at least 4 or more days. Yum!

My original thought was to make some sort of frozen drink in the
blender, but this came along and worked well.

My mother (when living in spain) always did prunes in brandy and
apricots in brandy. Made a lovely dessert in winter.

You;d be heading towards a pina colada but thinking of my mother
pickling prunes and apricots in brandy, I think I may put some
pineapple down for next winterr. I have some nice appletons special
spiced rum i brought back from Jamaica

I had to pick sloes from the hedgerows in November so that my
grandparents could make sloe gin.

Even better with a little Coco Lopez added. I soak canned pineapple
rings in rum for my Pina Colada upside down cakes. Canned is the only
field ripened pineapple found on the mainland, those found at market
were picked green and once picked pineapple does not ripen, it begins
to ferment/rot, some confuse that sour taste for ripened, NOT!

Can still add rum to a smoothie with canned pineapple, vanilla ice
cream, ice cubes, Coco Lopez and all the rum you can deal with. I
rarely buy so-called fresh pineapple, only to use as table decor, they
were picked green... canned was picked field ripened, like night and
day.

Can do that with any dried fruit, I have a large jar in the fridge all
the time, with mixed dried fruit... add some sliced fresh citrus and
cinnamon.... that's called "compote".

I like to drink brandy but not rum. Won't drink either 1 now tho.

i love rum and brandy but i find they don't like me much anymore, so i
stick with red wine but the pineapple steeped in rum will be okay.
just not a whole drink of it.

Seemingly odd combinations can work. Ketchup on peanut butter is one
pepper on watermelon.

Pepper is good on cantaloupe and honeydew too, so is cinnamon.

When I was a kid my dad put ketchup on watermelon! I could not begin to
imagine it. Then again, I don't like watermelon and have very little
use for ketchup. <shrug>

Tons of pepper on fries works well for me.

I picked up some pineapple this a.m. and the rings are now safely in a
mason jar, covered in rum. I've left them for the time being in the
kitchen as a decoration and a test on leaving them alone for awhile
