Viola! Pineapple Vanilla Rum!

Now let it sit for 4 to 6 months in a cool dark place, like the back of your food cupboard. Two weeks prior to consuming, add 2 or 3 spoonfuls of sugar and let sit. Enjoy in the following days/weeks/years, depending on how fast you drink this! THAT's how we make rum here in La Réunion!
