I NFUSE , HYDRATE , TEPACHE

Tepache is a fermented drink made from the peel, rind and sometimes flesh of pineapples. When sweetened with brown sugar and mixed with spices, a slightly effervescent and refreshing drink develops. Tepache is a wild ferment, meaning the yeast and bacteria naturally present on the pineapples skin are responsible for the fermentation process over several days. It’s best served cold over ice and has a cider like quality, although only contains a trace of alcohol. Tapache can also be used as an ingredient for cocktails or some countries mix it with beer.
