I made a few tweaks to each recipe and the result is phenomenal. A summery, beachy beverage in the form of a cupcake. The recipe for the cupcake is the same as my pineapple cupcake recipe, with the addition of rum extract. The extract amps up the pineapple flavor in this sweet cupcake. The recipe starts with a boxed yellow cake mix, and baked with the ingredients on the box.
