Cheers! Seven years of the Pineapple Princesses!

Ann and I launched this tribute blog to Ruby Borrowdale, the home economist behind the Golden Circle Tropical Recipe Book seven years ago today with a recipe for Sweet and Pungent Lamb. 

After cooking our way through the entire book we continued to find pineapple recipes from many different, mostly retro sources. It still provides challenges and amusement so I imagine the Pineapple Princesses may still be going strong with new additions to the approximately 700 recipes already collected in another seven years time, Anne.
   
The Singapore Sling was first created by a bartender at the Raffles Hotel in Singapore




Here, Greg the bartender, mixes up his own delectable version !
"Easy . . . equal parts . . .  I used nip/shot glass.    
One nip gin, one nip pineapple juice, a squeeze of lime and the remainder tonic water . . . pour over ice in shaker.... shake . . . and garnish with a wedge of lime."
