Makes : 6 cups
Ingredients :
- 1 cup dark brown sugar (packed)
- 1½ cups Mexican beer, such as Corona
- 8 cups water
- 1 overripe but not blackened banana, unpeeled and cut in half crosswise
- 2 sweet apples, such as Golden Delicious, unpeeled and halved
- peel with ½" of pulp attached of half a ripe medium pineapple
Preparation and Cooking Instructions :
- Place the sugar, beer, and water in a gallon glass or heavy, clear
plastic jar and stir to dissolve the sugar. Rinse the fruit and add
to the jar. Loosely cover the jar with plastic wrap, leaving space for
gases to escape as the liquid ferments. Set the jar aside at room temperature
in a sunny place for 3-5 weeks, depending on the weather and ripeness
of the fruit, until the liquid is amber in color with a thick, milky-white
layer on top.
- Spoon off the white layer and save it to start another batch of vinegar.
Strain the liquid through cheesecloth into a clean container and then
funnel it into a bottle. Cork the bottle and use vinegar as needed.
This vinegar will improve with age.
