  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup white sugar, 1 cinnamon stick, 5 whole cloves, and 1 cup apple cider vinegar.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat and simmer gently for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Add two (20 ounce) cans of drained pineapple chunks to the saucepan.
  4. Return the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for another 10 minutes, or until the relish has thickened slightly.
  5. Carefully ladle the hot relish into sterilized jars, leaving about 1/2 inch of headspace. Seal tightly and allow to cool completely. Refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving. Enjoy!
  6. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
