Nine bottles sitting in my wardrobe crying out to be drunk
I hope they taste a bit better after carbonation. Wasn't too keen on the bit I tried already. I won't be surprised if they taste horrible, it sat in the demijohn a good bit longer than it should..

Two more brews put together today




LHS is 4L pear and a little bit of apple, a cup of strong tea and about 200g sugar.
RHS is 4.5L apple. Put a litre in a pan and heated it with half a jar of honey and half a jar of raspberry jam (seedless). Chucked it in the DJ with the rest of the juice, a strong cup of tea (3 bags), added the yeast and its bubbling away already

Looking forward to these two

So do you drink the cuppa while brewing it or is it part of the recipe?

I wouldn't have thought there's enough in there to identify the tea, I shall let you know in a few weeks when I drink it
