Next batch up, either tonight or tomorrow depending on how the spoon supply holds out: Raspberry Wino Fuel!

(Yes, that is a bad play off the Polish on the label. No, I am not sorry.)

Tentative plan is to make a quarter-sized batch (2.5L), roughly going by the package directions as a baseline for what to expect from the mix. Only, using one of those mesh bags as a big teabag to hold the dried fruits, etc.--so I can just pull the solids out later. Also some of that liquid yeast that I accidentally ordered, instead of what they included in the pack. Already have plenty of my own yeast nutrients to go in with it.

Thinking to start out in the bigger jar, and save the 3L green top one for secondary fermentation with less headspace. Worst case, one of the existing plastic jugs of the right size should be free by the time that's ready for secondary.

I am really not sure why they're saying to step feed the sugar in exactly that way. But, may as well. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Feeding it through a calculator, the amount of sugar they're calling for should give you around 12.5% ABV in the end, which is fine by me.

I got these dry blends with the idea of using them to jazz up some cider and mead concoctions, but yeah may as well try some out as recommended first. Get a better idea of what we're working with before breaking out the apple juice and honey.

The next Redneck Brewing experiment in line!

It's like the infamous Peeps Wine, only more Swedish. (Plus more...and even more.)

Also, involving fewer undissolved eyes and less lurid color unless I add in some sort of food coloring myself. I did consider basically just using them more or less as a sugar supplement in some nice juice, but nah that felt like cheating. We're going 100% marshmallow rabbit here.

Yes, I actually ordered a kilo box of these poor bunnies mostly to do terrible things to them with hot water and yeast. Getting started a bit late, but hey. I really doubt longer aging would improve the results that much. 😅 The plastic tub should come in handy, at any rate.

These are not bad at all just as candy. I purposely chose the Franssons over a bigger brand because these don't list any vegetable oil or carnauba wax in the ingredients. Just a shit-ton of sugary stuff, gelatine, and a little sorbitol.

They also don't have any fruity flavor like the Cloetta are supposed to, just a more straightforward marshmallowy taste. This may be for the better or worse; we'll see soon enough, once I get my act together to actually mix it up later!

Homemade Alcohol for a Shrub.

This is actually a fruit wine I made with my own fruit and a wine kit. The instructions below don’t require any extra equipment. I’ve made shrubs for years. Fill a bowl with imperfect fruit, add sugar, spices, macerate the mix, strain it, age a few days and add a little white vinegar and you have something special on your hands. You can see my recipe for shrubs here: shrub-a-dub-dub Lately I’ve…
