Wine from fermented Kool-Aid (imgur.com)

Ingredients:

  • 2.3 kg koolaid
  • 2.0 g magnesium citrate (optional?)
  • wine yeast
  • yeast nutrient
  • enough water until the specific gravity reaches 1.090

This fermented fairly slowly but eventually fermented completely dry. It was fairly drinkable, basically tasted like a cheap dry red wine.

This hooch gave me the worst hangovers.

This is not wine, this is an abomination.

Signed, a german winemaker grandson (we take wine very srsly. Very!)

And now, I have to look for a hitman excuse me

I'd probably call this a hooch. It was mostly just a fun experiment.

Srsly, if we would have kool-aid over here, I would test this, just for the fun of it and see the disgusted faces of my neighbors
