Was thinking about getting a peach cider going so it'll be ready by the dog days of summer. Using what i know about making apple cider, I thought, "I wonder how much peach juice is going to rape me for at the supermarket."
come to find out, they really dont make peach juice at all. Anyone make peach cider here and care to share their experiences? A friend of mine took 2 gallons of apple cider, did a freeze/thaw with fresh peaches, pureed them, then added them together with some pectic enzyme. His batch never kicked off and he was left with a bunch of green muck. Granted i'm a little more involved than "set it and forget it"... is peach cider usually made with a base juice of some kind like apple? I'd think that a water/puree'd peach/sugar batch would yield something similar.
Looking for ideas.
