What have you got on the go right now?I'm in a wine-making phase, and have got 1 1/2 demijohns of blackcurrant; 2 demijohns of gooseberry; 1 1/2 demijohns of plum all started and bubbling away nicely. It's like an alchemists' in that corner of the kitchen (bay window, to take advantage of any natural heat when the sun occasionally appears).

We've got two gallons of strawberry and a gallon of gorse flower (which is VERY yellow)!
Plum wine sounds luvverly, but I thought it was difficult to get it to clear?

Turbo Cider

Yep Turbo cider
supermarket apple juice+ yeast you can add honey or sugar to up the alcohol content. If you use beer yeast you get sweet cider at about 5% or if you use wine yeast you can get dry cider at about 8%

Sloe vodka on the go now and if there is time this weekend I would quite like having a go at hedgerow wine. Oh yes, we were given masses of apples yesterday so wondering what to do with them!

I love cider, especially cold in the summer, but have never tried the turbo cider whats it like in comparison?
The pineapple sounds disgusting but I believe mead is very nice
