Aristo! Aristo! A la lanterne!

Montmorency sour cherry juice, fermented with cinnamon and cloves, and hit with a healthy portion of dark rum.

Now.... what do I call this stuff?

Normally, when I make our wine, I plan on it costing $3 to $4 per bottle when I am done.

This batch.... more like $8 per bottle.  Shipping in pure cherry juice, sugar, spices, rum, yeast, and special blood red bottles... it adds up.

Carolyn thinks it looks like bottled blood, so we are going with 'Cherry's Blood' as a name, in one form or another.

I'm half waiting for Dracula to knock on our door tonight. "Good Eeffening. Do you by chance haf .... Viine?"
