During Summer which started on March up to June fruits like mangoes, pineapple, banana, water melon and honeydew melon are all at their sweetest and cheapest season. Mangoes and pineapples are available all-year long but not as sweet and delicious during the summer season and quite expensive too.

Because these fruits flooded the market, some vendors will go house to house to sell their products. It’s a common sight when you see carts full of different fruits roaming the streets even in private residential areas.

Now that rainy season sets in and the fruits were not as sweet as before, it’s time to do some cooking.

Here’s the peeled pineapple which I cut into bite size, this was about 1 kilo. I first boiled 2 cups white sugar in 2 cups of water to make a syrup. Then when sugar was dissolve, I added the pineapple pieces and let it simmer for 10 to 15 minutes or when pineapple changed into soft color.

So there it is even if it’s not summer anymore I can still enjoy this delicious fruit without the sour taste. Sweet and crunchy. Best serve cold as dessert and the juice for refreshment by adding ice into it.
