Peppers in a rum bottle, from Puerto Rico

[multijd]

Has anyone ever seen this? A freind took this picture in Puerto Rico and I would like some information about what you think is going on in this bottle.
Thanks,

SPICY rum!!

looks like the bottle is covered with foil. It could be a fermented sauce that they just keep adding peppers to and using. anyways that's jmho.

Its a quick and dirty hot sauce... the bottle is simply being re-used... Do the same thing here at home.
In anticipation of a robust harvest we are going to infuse some booze..

Here are some recipes members came up with http://thehotpepper.com/topic/32149-infusing-salt-and-booze-with-hot-peppers/

My guess is A seriously Hot case of Montezuma revenge waiting to happen.. don't eat it.

 

[The Hot Pepper]

Just a hot sauce. Look for "Goya Hot Pickled Peppers" in your market. Looks the same but has a shake (small hole) top because the point is the liquid.

Similar to what we make here ( Guaro is CR moonshine--sugar liquor)

I THINK THEY ARE JUST REUSING A RUM BOTTLE FOR A HOME MADE PIQUE.

San Patricio, your suggestion is along the lines of what I was thinking. I'm going to give it a try.

Best,

Doug,
That recipe looks like dyn-o-mite! I am positive the results are spectacular.
I'll bet the top quality can only be made in CR as locally ripened CR bananas have a taste
unrivaled anywhere ....IMHO.

I found these also. They are all similar.

I have a slightly simpler recipe coming tomorrow rather than hanging the bananas for a week. It involves apple cider vinegar and a super ripe( disgustingly black) armful of plantains to ferment.
It supposedly only takes a few days.I'll try( on my GF) before I subject you guys to liquid chaos

I remember the Guaro well.... well at least the Guaro Girls giving out the shots in Jaco... the rest is kinda fuzzy.
Whats the saying about the 3 feathers....?
