Ingredients
- 3 wedges fresh pineapple
- 2 dashes pure vanilla extract
- 3/4 ounce simple syrup (1:1 ratio)
- 2 ounces white rum, preferably Denizen
- 1 ounce fresh lime juice
- Ice
- Freshly ground black pepper
Preparation
Step 1
1. Grill the pineapple wedges to achieve grill marks. (The natural sugars in the pineapple will caramelize.)
2. In a glass, muddle 2 wedges of the grilled pineapple with the vanilla bean extract and simple syrup. Pour the rum and lime juice into a shaker. Add ice and shake. Double-strain into a cocktail glass.
3. Dust the remaining pineapple wedge with black pepper and use to garnish the drink. Serve immediately.
