Chilli wine

[Old Greg]

It was bl**dy expensive (like, almost a minute's billing) and I brought it back half way around the world. I'd hate to ruin it.

Was about to flame you for your carbon footprint in procuring a bottle of wine.

Try freeze distilling it.

I saw a bottle for sale when I was in Australia, so brought it home. It's made entirely from chillies, sugar and water. It has a sweet taste, but is, naturally, rather hot! A good aperatif.

I was wondering how a spirit made by distilling it would be. Anyone seen any chilli spirit?

I've made chilli vodka, just by putting four kenyan chillies into a bottle of vodka and leaving it about a month.

+1 for the Chilli Vodka, never heard of chilli wine.. but will have a google now!

I joined last week being new to contracting and my first post has been about alcohol haha!

I suspect that it's probably not distilled but a local pub has a Chilli Schnapps which is painful. Even seen an ambulance called once for someone who did not heed the warning and knocked it back in one
