Hookah With A Pineapple As A Base?


Recommended Posts

We went to a hookah bar the other night and seen some guys from high school we hadnt seen in a while. we motioned for them to come smoke with us. as the night went on they told us that they took a pineapple and used it as the base, filling it with different juices. anyone ever try this? can you offer any tips? it sounds great

Can't say I've ever seen anyone do a pineapple base although I suppose it might be possible although it would be hard to carve out the pineapple through such a small hole... I have used a pineapple as a bowl before though smile.gif

see, thats what i was thinking. but i mean... like you said i guess its possible. if done right it could be quite good with any fruity hookah tobaco
they also recomended using an apple as a bowl
thats not so hard i have seen it done before

Bowls are easy I've done apples, oranges, pineapples, mangos, kiwis, bananas. cantalopes, watermelons, etc..... But a pineapple base seems like a bit of a stretch to me.

im sure its entirely possible, though also it would only be usable for just a few times. maybe the way they carved it is open it like a pumpkin, with a large circle cut on a slant, carved it out, and then replaced the large cirle, then cutting a smaller circle for the shank to fit in...

This seems like it would be a great idea! however there are some drawbacks to it as well, i could imagine... such as Airtightness, Preperation, Cleanup, and Price?

Im sure the flavors you would draw would be amazing if you can keep it airtight enough...

also i like my hookah because there is hardly any preparation or cleanup... water and bowl done lol. The price for buying a hookah that is going to be used all the time is decent, tobacco price is allright as well,I dont want to have to spend even more money on buying fruit all the time too sad.gif

This idea however would be awesome for a party... because then you dont have to worry about anyone breaking your vase... or anything really except for tipping coals... but that can be fixed too.

for a once an a while thing i would probobly do this for parties or get togethers but not for a common smoke or anything...

The fruka sounds like it would be quite a bit of work to build a hookah that will smoke once or twice. It would probably rock however.



I dont care about how much work it would be. Hopefully, the flavor will be amazi
ng. You would need to cut the bottom some as well so it would have a flat surface. I'm going to try it this weekend so I will put some pics up if i remember. Edited by MeMyselfAndMark

I have been tempted to do this with a watermelon for some time now. But damn, I love my watermelon and its a waste to me if I do not eat it.


A nice big watermelon base though, could be quite funny.
