However I wonder how much of the alcohol was lost, soaked by the fruit itself. I drank a lot and wasn't plastered, though I'm sure if I had as much of Plantation Pineapple that I would have had a hangover. Just a friendly suggestion btw, you shouldn't need to infuse the rum much longer than 48 hours as that seems to be the prime amount of time for the fruit to give its flavor.
