Ingredients:
- 1 fresh pineapple
- 1 bottle citron/citrus vodka
How to make it:
- Slice the fresh pineapple into chunks or wedges.
- Pack the pineapple into a Mason jar.
- Fill the jar with vodka until the pineapple is fully covered.
- Seal and store at room temperature.
- Let it infuse for about 30 days.

What it tastes like: Sweet, citrusy, and smooth, with just enough brightness from the lemon vodka to keep it from being overly sugary.
How to use it: Serve chilled over ice, mix into cocktails, add to sparkling water for something lighter, or use as a base for tropical drinks.
Pro tips: Use ripe pineapple for the best flavor, keep the fruit fully submerged to avoid spoilage, and remember, the longer it sits, the smoother it gets.
*Note: A sealed Mason jar with a snug-fitting lid is really all you need here. If you want to make this a gift, pairing it with a reCAP POUR Lid makes pouring shots or cocktails much cleaner.
