    This was amazing. It was a hit at our church luncheon. I will definitely make it again. Because I made it for the church lunch, I did not use the Malibu Rum. Instead, I substituted Rum extract, vanilla extract and a small amount of crushed pineapple and enough juice to almost cover the raisins and soaked them in that overnight. I did not have sherry wine vinegar but did have sherry cooking wine so used 1 1/2 Tbsp of cider vinegar and 1/2 Tbsp sherry cooking wine. The directions for cooking were perfect.
