I bought one of these at a garage sale last weekend and I'm itching to try it out I've searched the internet (including TC) and I can't find a Pi-Yi recipe no matter how I spell it. Does anyone have a recipe they can share? |

The Pi-Yi recipe is in "Intoxica!" Those pineapple corers are awesome. Mine has attachments for three different sizes. |

If my memory serves, there's a Don the Beachcomber postcard that lists three cocktails, including the Pi-Yi. It's more of a listing of ingredients rather than an actual recipe, but as I recall the drink calls for Cuban rums. |

The Pina Passion is pretty close to the Pi-Yi. This is one of my faves when I've got some fresh pineapple around. |

Not completely off the subject does anyone know where to purchase those pineapple hollow outers? I thought I had seen a metal one at some point but I can't find my link. Btw that recipe sounds tasty! |

leleliz, you can find them at stores that sell cookware, such as Sur La Table or Williams Sonoma. I got mine at Target, and I've seen them at a larger few grocery stores including Kroger's (which is the same chain as Ralph's for you West Coasters). |

I usually see them at the grocery store in the produce section next to the pineapples. |

Thanks for the recipes. I'm going to try out the Pina Passion tomorrow because I have most of the ingredients. I'll post pictures. |

As promised, Pina Passion pictures: Ingredients. ALCB does not list peach brandy so I substituted apricot brandy and it was fine. Erin. The pineapples were perfectly ripe - sweet, juicy and very easy to hollow out. Jessica. The intact core served as an "umbrella stand" -Sweet Daddy T.

Recipe from the former Sea Shell restaurant of the former Coco Palms Resort, Kauai: 1 oz rum Blend. Garnish with straw and orchid. Serve in pineapple. Price code=Piyi. Taken directly from the recipe cards. Yet to try it. Just got it. Rescued all of the recipe cards I could find on this last trip. Enjoy. |

I have the plastic one pictured in this forum and it works great for creating a spiral cut but sometimes I'd prefer a tubular cut. Does anyone have a clue if this style is still made? I think this picture is from an old OMC catalog.

Rick: I googled it. I believe it is a mix for the drink "Tropical Itch." The mix is available on the internet at tropicalisle.com. I must admit that I had no idea that such a mix existed until I found this recipe. TNTiki
