Ingredients

  • Ogi water
  • Ripe pineapple, sliced
  • Fresh or dried lemongrass leaves, rinsed
  • Lemons or oranges
  • White sugar

Method

  1. Combine ogi water, pineapple, and lemongrass leaves in a pot. Simmer for at least 45 minutes.
  2. Remove from the heat, and cool completely. Once cool, strain out the solids.
  3. Place the sugar in a pot. Slowly melt it over medium heat, stirring, and cook until it reaches a light brown caramel.
  4. Stir some hot water into the caramel to make a sauce—if you use cold water, it will crystallize. Set aside.
  5. Sweeten the strained liquid with the caramel sauce, and serve.
