I am itching to make a beverage & just queried on here "What Can I Make" & I was suggested Skeeter Pee. It sounds like fun to make & I was checking out recipes and they all call for (from what I've seen) a yeast slurry from a batch of primary fermented wine, which that I do not have. Does anyone know what I can do or have another recipe other than the ones I have found for it? Thanks!
 
I mentioned in your other thread:

What I’ve done: Buy a 96oz or so jug of apple juice with no preservatives (other than acorbic acid aka vitamin C). Pitch yeast in that 2-3 days before making Skeeter Pee. Dump most of the juice (save and drink it) and the shake the remainder to get the yeast into a slurry which you can use to ferment the SP. I’ve only done this with Montrachet yeast and similar but have had no issue with fermentation or off flavors.
