Chilli Turbo Cider

[kearnage]

After reading DaaB's post a while back about his chilli beer which he had trouble getting rid of I thought I would give it a go with turbo cider.

After a week in the fermentor it was ready to bottle and I took the opportunity to take a crafty sip

Holy-Smoke is this stuff hot!! I wanted to make it strong but this is beyond anything I imagined.

I've come up with a name for it.........SUICIDER!!

Now to make a few labels. Any Photoshop gurus out there?? hehe

Me and a friend made a load of chilli vodka before. We used a load of habenero, Naga Morich (the hottest in the world) and thai red dragons. The one with naga moric was insane. The one with Thais was great stuff

If anyone is interested after my latest plants have fruited i can send people seeds to grow their own:

Crimson Torpedo (Large and fleshy like jalepeno but hotter)
or
Thai Red Dragon (Thinner than jalepeno and much hotter)

You could alternativley try a drop of 2 of this i got for my birthday

600k scovilles

Sadly someone's beaten you to the name as that was a very popular cider at the Hitchin Beer and Cider Fest I worked at last March (and will do this March)

Ah well. Shame about the name but no worries.

I used Habeneros as well. I have some Chilli sauce that I got from the net a year or so ago. Its 5 million scovilles. Serious health damage stuff.

I had some of that. Sadly, the oil the capsiacin was suspended in dissolved the dropper top. You could probably have dropped some of that in the boil if you were doing ag. Mind your eyes tho

Mmmmmm. My orange habernero is going crazy, have picked 2 dozen so far and at least that many still on it, now have something else chilli to inflict on mates.

Insanity sauce is good stuff, i tend towards Blaire's death sauces personally, the Megadeath is arse on fire hot. But that limited edition stuff is an ingredient, not a sauce! Jealous!

Would love the seeds but Oz is a tad too far away for posting, and my partner is getting a little sick and tired of the expanding chilli garden..... but you need different ones for different foods and now, thanks to Hopkins, different beverages! My thai suns and birds eyes would be perfect for chill cider!
