Hard Lemonade

February 25, 2008

Well, this may seem a bit girlie, but I think it might be a good experiment and good to have around for the non-beer fanatics. I found a recipe for Hard Lemonade! It’s really simple: just lemonade concentrate, sugar and water. The recipe I found was on homebrewtalk.com and is as follows (thanks USFBull):

  • Enough lemonade concentrate(check label to make sure there is no potassium sorbate) and water to make 5 gallons. (10 cans)
  • 2 pounds sugar
  • 1 pound ultra light dme (more or less depending on target alcohol percentage)
  • 1 pack champagne yeast

I think with some tweaking and prodding, this could be pretty good. I might try a gallon batch to see how it turns out.

    DME = dry malt extract.

    Hey, nice tips. Perhaps I’ll buy a bottle of beer to the man from that chat who told me to visit your site :)
