I made a batch according to the apfelwein recipe, but used Strawberry Kiwi juice instead. I've not sampled it yet, but it's about 3 months old. It's already in a keg, carbonated, and chilling in the fridge.
Could I open it up and dump in a gallon or so of juice to backsweeten it? Would I be safe to stir with a big spoon (sanitized) after adding the juice? It seems like it would be safe, as the keg will already have CO2 in the head space.
I don't want to ruin it, but I think I'd like to sweeten it up for a party I'm having next week. I'll of course sample it first to see if it needs it. I'm just thinking on how past batches turned out pretty dry.
