Due to the non-success of my summer cider due to faulty equipment, I was relatively put off homebrewing for a while. However, I decided to take the plunge and get all fixed up blah blah credit crunch etc and i'm ready to brew again!
In tune with the seasons, I want to make something I can enjoy over the winter. What a winter taste is, however, i'm stuck on.
I'd like this to be an apple based cider, so that's apple juice sorted. What shall I flavour it with though? This is essentially my first home brew, so secondary racking isn't really preferable - as i'm still not sure entirely what i'm doing! hahah. I do, however, have my oh-so-experienced dad to help me out this time, as he's seeing if he can make red wine from vimto this week.
Anyway, I am looking for recipe suggestions basically. I like fruity things.
My guess is along the lines of Berries. Maybe a combo of blue and raspberries or something - who knows!
Any ideas? Cheers!
