348 Is There A Pineapple Under The Sea?
/Is there a secret drink hidden on the podcast this episode? Maybe. The tantalizing cocktail that Sunshine and Starshine enjoy on this show takes a little doing. But, that does not mean its too difficult for the average Joe or Betty. Listen carefully to the first 5 minutes and jot down the recipe for a tasty libation full of pineapple, butter, sea salt and plenty of rum. Someday we will post the recipe with the pictures it deserves. Until then, this one is for the true podcast listener only.
