Tried this recipe and it does not work. ct Capital Grille uses Pineapple Juice in addition to pineapple slices. I’ll give the juice a try and will report back.
I left it in the refregirator for about two weeks, and OMG, it became thick, yellow, with zero taste of Vodka, Liqueur!!! Me and my friends were blown away! Amazing!!!
Family Favorite. Tastes just like they make in the restaurants
love this stuff!!I add blackberries or rasberries to it with two large pineapples and 1.75lt of potato vodka. I let it set out on the counter for at least 5 days. I can’t ever make it that long. It is very strong so be very careful.
This is the Capital Grille Steakhouse’s signature drink. When it’s made right it’s a five star winner. The pineapple and vodka should soak for a week and it is not necessary to refrigerate. After it soaks the pineapple needs to be crushed and squeezed of it’s juices and then strained and the liquid reserved. At this point is when you refrigerate it. Serve up as a martini or on the rocks. It’s naturally sweet from the pineapple juice but is a stronger drink because it is all vodka. Very good to sip on ice.
I used a very ripe pineapple, and it just never gave the vodka very much flavor. I wound up letting it sit for weeks, hoping that it would infuse more, but the flavor was weak at best.
Juice the pineapple after letting it sit and add that to the final mixture. Like another member said…don’t refrigerate!!! A favorite Tucson eatery serves a pineapple martini and they let it marinate for 6 weeks. I can never wait that long.
my brother in law introduce us to these… they are great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and to the people who complain its too strong, you see the ingredients are 2 things (pineapple and vodka) before you start — of course it will be strong! really good mixed with sprite.
way too strong! Had to serve with pineapple juice.
This was fantastic and super potent. I used pineapple skyy vodka, so not truly a stoli doli but still awesome.
This was not the greatest very strong so I used pineapple juice to cut down the vodka…I’m a bit of a whimp when it comes to alchol. I added coconut rum crushed ice and pineapple juice and made a slushy yummy good if your a whimp like me.
Yummy! ***Warning: This is a flavored vodka. Whatever proof vodka you use, that’s the proof the finished product will be. . . Meaning: This is strong stuff*** Going to try it with mangos after I finish this batch. We made up a “pina colada martini -2 parts pineapple vodka, 1 part coconut rum, half a part half and half shaken with ice then strained. Yummy! Update: Tried with the mangos, very good but a bit on the sweet side for our tastes. The mango version went great with a squeeze of lime and a bit of sprite/diet sprite. I bought another sun tea jar so I could have both varieties at once this summer.
Got wasted on this last night. Sooo delicious, and really good with a splash of cherry liqueur too. Thanks!
Very good. For an added twist i serve with an array of fruit juices so guests can ‘make there own’ but be aware that this can get you tipsy super fast when you cant even taste the liquor!
These are awesome, however I found that refrigerating made it take a lot longer to get rid of the bite of the vodka. I put the glass jar out in the sun for a few days and it sweetened right up!
This is the quintessential summer cocktail. It’s really easy to make, it’s great to have around at parties, and it will get you buzzed in a flash! We fill an iced tea jug (the kind with a spigot) up with 2 pineapples and a handle of Stoli, then after a week we add more vodka (the pineapple sucks it all up). When you are at the end of your batch and craving more, simply smash the pineapple slices and more of the delicious coctail is created. Cheers!
