  1. You just need 3 basic ingredients to make this incredible drink – Pineapple , Raw / Brown Sugar & Water !

    1 Pineapple (you just need the skin & little flesh )
    150 to 200 g Sugar (you can adjust to suit your taste)
    2 Litres Water
    Some slices of ginger
    Cinnamon Stick

    This is a 2 Stage Fermentation.
    1. First Fermentation to activate the natural micro organisms.
    2. Bottled Fermentation to naturally carbonate.

    Method –
    1. Make sure that the pineapple has been washed well.
    2. Clean the Glass Jar with HOT water to sterilize it.
    3. The water that you will use needs to be boiled & cooled. Only then use.
    4. Before adding the pineapple in, the water has to be cooled completely (this is the MOST important step, else you will kill the good microbes)
    5. First fermentation usually takes 48 to 60 hours. Here you will see a froth on top of the jar & it is perfect. You can ferment at room temperature or in the Balcony. The longer you will keep, it will keep becoming less sweeter & more tart.
    6. Strain this & transfer this to a glass bottle (Best is if you use a Kilner Clip top bottle, like the one in the video)
    7. Do not shake the bottle too much once the tepache has been bottled. (imagine a bottle of coca cola)
    8. In bottle fermentation – 1 day at room temperature. If you want to ferment it for longer, make sure you open the cap & release the CO2 once. This is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT.
    9. You can store this in the fridge once ready. This will slow down the fermentation further.

  2. It's called Tepache. A summer drink made in Mexico. You should have given due credits. Obviously you didn't come up with this on your own.

  3. I have tried this but kept this for 5-6 days and now there is a little bit of fungi on top of the jar on the material which is above water. Should I filter it and bottle it for further process??

    And it taste little bitter in taste 😅😅
