Hervido de piña nariñense is a typical Latin American drink enjoyed during end-of-year celebrations. The name explains it all; originating in Nariño of southern Colombia, it’s prepared by boiling pineapple juice with aguardiente. The amount of liquor used depends on the preference of your guests, since some like their drinks stronger than others. It’s served hot, in glasses or cups garnished with sugar and pineapple slices. As you will see, it’s very easy to prepare and just as tasty when it comes to flavor.
