Who else here on this forum is interested in "non-traditional wines"??

Help me with my math Daze.
If I made the sp 10% ABV and mix a gallon of sp with a gallon of regular lemonade does that make it 5%?

 

[Daze]

yep

You never know what ya gonna get,,,, it is always a blend of how the sugars, starch, flavours and yeast all work together. you can sample the mix as it ferments to adjust the sugar,water,temp, to get what ya want.

Welches grape juice, ale yeast. Let it ferment a ways, watch gravity, bottle condition, and bam! fizzy, sweet grape juice coolers! all the 14 year olds in the neighborhood will be raving about it!

theres a place in the next town over that sometimes sells dirt-cheap pineapples, when they have them i always make a big batch of wine (very good stuff it is, too, if a little acidic). im thinking next time maybe adding some molasses & coconut to get a faux Caribou Lou

I would love to hear how it turns out and your recipe if you will share

I started out by making non-traditional country bumpkin wines :-D
Apple wine and a red grape Welches.... frankly, they all turned out great and very intense.

I would like to try making (WOW) Wurzeil's Orange wine soon!
