timebomb wrote:So i have been doing several of these with different citrus fruit over the last couple of weeks. A couple days after i added the stevia/water mix to my lemon one ive noticed a layer of oil on the top. The rest is cloudy yellow due to the large amount of oils but this clear yellow slick keeps forming on top. Would this be due to there being too much oils in the mix? I did use large fresh picked lemons, smells awesome.

Milky wrote:Alright. It's back up again.
For those of you interested, I used 200 grams of the following fruit. (Frozen weight)
Lets hope they turn out as nice as the last ones I made.

I put the following down tonight;
550ml 92ABV Neutral + 200g Coles Frozen Blackberries,
550ml 92ABV Neutral + 200g Coles Frozen Blueberries,
550ml 92ABV Neutral + 200g Coles Frozen Strawberries.
I plan on still using Docs method with the Natvia & water. But one question is do I still need to add some lemon juice to set the colour & stop it going bitter in the strawberry one like in the strawberry panty dropper recipie?
I will update how they go within the next week.
I have pictures but I'm on my mobile and can't upload them at the moment as they are over 1M. And the home Internet has decided to quit. Apparently it's happening to a lot of people.

My Tangelo liqueur tastes pretty good but it's missing something. Seemed to me that it needed some zing, so I made up a 1% solution of citric acid in water and added it to some samples in various strengths. Very easy to overdo it FWIW. I liked it, my missus hated it!
Opinions?

which reminds me I still need to put my lemon mash vodka recipe up, because that stuff is awesome :handgestures-thumbupleft:
