I ordered two 4oz bottles of Brewers Best flavorings - one apricot the other cherry. I thought I'd experiment with each and combinations of them. The cherry arrived with the seal under the cap missing so I returned it. I'll order another. I will post the results of my tinkering with these in...

I don't think they'd be disappointed for prison hootch, as it can surely get you toasted. Probably a good headache the next day, though! :D

Hi Jon. Good point about keeping the air lock topped off. I've let one run dry before on the inverted cup - type.
