    Hmm. Ive always been under the impression that honey is not acidic enough to ferment properly so it needed a bump to fully ferment over. I might be wrong, just asking sense I normally add acid before fermentation begins.

    Well. Option 2 is the Cucumber, Lime, Mint. Think it would be best to juice the cucumber and use that as the liquid ? Add Honey, some lime juice to give it the acid it needs to ferment. Than add mint tell it gets to the flavor your looking for ? Sense your looking for a carbonated wine, what...

    February 2017 Wine of the Month Club

    Allspice, Clove, Black Pepper, Cinnamon. Maybe some Orange Zest. All would add great undertone for this kind of wine. Just throwing it out there. Just stumbled on this form.

    Fortified Skeeter Pee?

    I am about to bottle my first batch of Skeeter Pee. I used Lon D's recipe. Its at 13% final gravity. When I was making the wine, I used the zest from the Lemons and made a Limoncello from it. The Limoncello is now filtered and done. I was thinking about trying to fortify some of the Skeeter pee...
