Anyone have a good recipe for hard cider, Apple Jack or whatever you wish to call it.
Over here cider bought from stores is simply a strong apple juice.

Never will forget the first sip of moonshine I ever had.
I took a guarded sip, being warned not to slug it down like the cheap commercial stuff.
I swallowed that small sip and felt it warm me all the way down. When it hit my middle the heat radiated out all four limbs all the way to my fingers and toes!
It cleared my sinuses, untwisted my innards and game me tunnel vision for a good thirty minutes.
I am pretty sure that if I had burped on a lit cigarette I could have blown up half the world.

I sort of remember an episode at Polperro in Cornwall at the little Pub on the harbour where they sell Scrumpy out of the barrel, after that it's all a blur hic----hic. And Pork cooked in Cider is just lovely.

When I was growing up, there was a pub in the next village called the Bell, it had some truly wicked scrumpy, and a standing challenge which was only ever completed a couple of times, the challenge being to finish 10 pints of scrumpy without passing out! There were some rules about downing each pint and having a minimum time period in between pints, but very few ever got past the 4th or 5th pint!
Anyone completing the challenge won £1,000.00.

nope, not the same at all Sunna, the best cider is made on farms in Devon and Somerset, the commercial stuff is rubbish.
Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.
