Adventures in Alcohol： 梅酒

[risskabob]

So, I got it into my head to try to make 梅酒 (ume shu), which is Japanese Plum liqueur. Although really, they are more like apricots and I don't know where the plum thing comes from.

Anyway, I thought I would document it for my flist.

First step, buy the stuff! (or pick the ume yourself, but I didn't feel like that)

My first reaction?

GREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN! PREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTTTTYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!

My second reaction?

FFF! THREE MONTHS, MY ASS. I do not have the patience. I would be opening the jar on the daily to take a sip and see "how it was doing". Waiting for boiling water tends to make me crazy. :P

Haha.

We'll likely wait a year.

XD

lol what? I'd just be like "screw that, grab a bottle of it already made"

[risskabob]

Haha, yeah, but I've had some a friend made, and it was tasty as fuck.

The colors on the bigger ume were really pretty.
