So, without needing to guess much, it’s likely going to be a shittacular Holiday Season. Everything is going to be expensive and stupid and extra scammy and shit. More so than usual (Subscribe for more uplifting messages every day delivered to your inbox. Or don’t. See if I care.)
Anyway, I cook, and make lots of homemade stuff as the season and market allows.
I just finished making 10 jars of super dill-y dill pickles, and a few of okra. Which I’m making with the plan of giving them to people I like for the holidays, as people usually love the recipe I use. I never planned on being “the pickle guy” but here we are.
Might also make some bubbly 7% ABV spiced honey wine, beer, vanilla extract, herbal bitters for coughs. We’ll see.
Just curious if anyone has any similar plans in mind and what y’all are making.
Good question - If it’s lower ABV it doesn’t need to age as long. If I leave it carbonated like a cider it seems more approachable to folks.
