So I'm curious. How does it taste? Like peppery booze?

Yes! It starts hot, then you taste the fruit flavor of the jalapenos. Then your tongue falls off.  >:-)

I'm curious to hear about it being used for cooking!  :o

In all honesty, I fear the idea of drinking that... and I grew up with my grandma's chile pequin salsa strait from the molcajete as a rite of passage!

It's made for cooking, I brew it bone dry, no sweetness at all. It's great in spaghetti sauce, chili, soups, sloppy Joes, I put it in anything that could use a pick me up! Of course, if I let some spoil, I'll have jalapeno vinegar. You ever seen a salad burst into flames?  >:-)  :laugh:

Hugs, Devlyn

What an awesome idea.  I brew a bit in my spare time.   :D. Where do you get your yeast?  Purchased or cultivated?

Ebay, I use Lalvin EC-1118. It will take wine up to 18% alcohol, but this one is light on sugar and probably runs about 12% maybe?
