10 pounds of honey
2-3 jalepeno
water
That's it. I used local honey. It turns out very sweet and the pepper adds a neat after flavor and zing that makes you want more. It takes a very long time to finish and clarify. The first batch made me think I did something wrong because it took so long.
After 1 full day of getting started I stirred it to make sure everything was still mixed. Mistake. It bubbled up like a soda bottle and I wasted about a cup or so. Sad. Still have plenty left. No more stirring :-)
5/19/2018 - I put the airlock on a week ago and it's bubbling. I remember from my first batch that it takes a very long time to finish. It bubbles slowly and only wh e it starts to settle is it almost done. Based on the way it looks now it will be a long time coming.
8/20/2018 - Bottled this past weekend. Oh my it is soooo tasty. I poured off some dregs for tasting after I bottled it. Delicious. I bought some grolsch style clear bottles and it looks so nice. I got 12 small bottles and 3 750ml bottles from the batch. Gave a bottle to the in-laws as a gift.
