        That's only 50% juice so costs 3x as much as buying pure pineapple juice @ 3x 1L cartons for two pounds fifty pence. EDIT OK, you get a bit more sugar/L in the HJ.

                  I made some nice Pineapple wine a couple of years ago. Involved boiling up lots of pineapples then fermenting them in a bucket. The end result was ok but I've become a bit lazy now and tend to use fruit juice or cordials. I can highly recommend Strawberry Ribena wine, but it does need to age for a few months.

                    I'm glad you bumped this one, I was wondering how long it had been going. Still blopping away :doh:
