Turbo Blueberry (or other fruit)

Dumb question but the premise of turbo cider im guessing is the sugars you add turn the apple juice into alchohol apple juice which we all know as cider.

What would happen if you did the same process with the same quantity of blueberry juice or cranberry juice or something or even orange juice?

i want to find something the missus could drink...

I've done cranberry

If you thought that the apple is dry wait t'ill you try cranberry

Cranberry and orange...did that too, the cranberry didn't come through that well at 1 in 5 soln, but it still got supped

Like the sound of the blueberry, if you do it let us know how you get on

EDIT that was meant to read apple and cranberry above

fermented fruit juice is wine? If your talking higher alcohol contents then expect to wait up to 1year for the flavour to mature. For example5% beers take ~ 6weeks+, 7% beers take can take up to 6 months, 12% wine a year etc.

fermented OJ would be interesting

talk of my death is premature, the wife beat me to the lemons, I do have a couple of lemon tarts though and a load of lemon curd:D

I'm left with 2 lemons, 1 for a margarita and one for some ginger beer.

I will be going to the market on sunday, and I have 3 or 4 recipie ideas I will be trying out.

Is it possible or even wise

to use 1 litre of pineapple juice with 4 litres of apple juice.
I have just picked up 3 demi-johns from my sister and my wife has just got me 13 litres of tescos apple juice(value) 1 litre of cranberry juice and 1 litre of pineapple(delmonte

) juice.
Also i have 2 jars(340g) of clear honey that i may use in a turbo cider?

Tonight seems to be the night for experimenting me thinks

I think it would be more accurate to call the result rocket fuel
