Mulled cider - A TC
Mixed Berry - Strawberry and Cherry.

That's a regular for me too Chippy - now known as the House Wine here [emoji106]

To be honest i used to experiment a lot but Mrs tea likes the RGJ + Apple so i make it regularly i like to make a WineBuddy Sav Blanc 30 bottle kit every so often that keeps me in white wine while she knocks back the rosé :wink:

Basic TC, Beaverdale Cabernet Sauvignon and Ginger beer (half coopers, half natural). I'm currently on the lookout for a decent white wine.

I've got an all white grape juice WOW clearing at the minute - I've high hopes for that one being decent.

Another vote here for RGJ and apple. Not for me but the missus. She says it's the best and I've got to stop experimenting with others. A pity cos experimenting is the best bit.

Not looking to hijack the thread but I'm not finding it on a search. Am I missing something obvious?

My best has been RGJ, apple juice and cranberry + raspberry drink (1L of each in a DJ). This has also been the most popular with friends and family.

As for a dry white, 2L orange juice with 1L grapefruit juice worked pretty well. However, no need to add citric acid in this one. I did and it's rather tart! One sweetener per bottle sorted that though. (4 sweeteners in the Dj would probably be enough, but I couldn't be bothered with re-bottling it all.)

I like the sound of that. Not seen blackberry syrup yet. Will have to hunt or follow your lead !

The blackcurrant tastes at bit artificial (although it's not), noticed it more in TC's but I love the straw berry one so will give it a whirl. (With muslin bag for elderberries this time !)

Ever used this stuff seems a lttle easier to use than mashing the berries.

Interesting, not used though. It's ~£5 on Amazon just looked so not cheap.
