Drunken Monkey Jam is a bold, tropical fruit spread made with bananas, pineapple, coconut, and a splash of dark rum. This sweet and boozy homemade jam is perfect for breakfast, desserts, or as a unique edible gift.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 cup crushed pineapple (drained)
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut
  • 1/4 cup dark rum
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 3 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 packet fruit pectin (like Sure-Jell)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the crushed pineapple and shredded coconut, mixing well.
  2. Stir in the dark rum, lime juice, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until combined.
  3. Transfer the mixture to a large saucepan and add the granulated sugar and fruit pectin. Stir constantly over medium heat until it comes to a boil.
  4. Once boiling, cook for 1–2 minutes while stirring continuously until the mixture thickens slightly.
  5. Pour the hot jam into sterilized jars, seal with lids, and process in a hot water bath for 10 minutes.

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas for the best flavor and sweetness.
  • Ensure pineapple is well-drained to avoid excess liquid.
  • This jam makes an excellent homemade gift idea.
  • Store sealed jars in a cool, dark place. Refrigerate after opening.
