Can you make Dr. Pepper wine? How long would it need to ferment? Would you try it?

Just mix Dr Pepper with vanilla vodka.

Probably. The original Coca-Cola was a coca wine, and the alcohol was removed before the cocaine had been.

Idiot. The yeast will eat the sugar and make it less sweat. The yeast will also bring flavor to the wine. Wines and cocktails are different categories

There is probably a fuckton of preservatives, so I bet nothing will grow there.

>> No.19282258

>>19281972
i've done something similar with another soda that i found that didnt have any preservatives, the preservatives specifically benzoate degrades yeast cell walls to kill the yeast which prevents fermentation, so if you can find a soda without benzoate and hopefully other preservatives then it will work.
for the yeast use ec-1118 because its really hard to kill and consider adding yeast nutrients because they will prevent it from smelling like an outhouse, to get 15%abv you will need to add more sugar anyways.
recipe:
first pour soda into pot and add 50% more water then take the amount of liquid in weight and multiply with 0.35 to get amount of sugar you need, see how much sugar is in the bottles already and add more.
now boil it for 5-10 minutes, usually you add yeast nutrients now.
wait for it to cool and then when its cold enough for the yeast then move it to a bottle and add the yeast, shake and leave for 14 days.
also sterilize all your shit before.
you could probably add yeast straight the bottle but i havent tried it like that yet

oh forgot to mention but you can buy plastic airlocks for super super cheap and then use a soldering iron to make a hole in the bottle cap for the airlock, leave about 1/2 - 1 inch of headroom between the cap and the liquid

like other anons I assumed that preservatives would inhibit fermentation, but I know someone on /r/mead claimed to have made a mead with mountain dew and champagne yeast that actually fermented. Also he let the mountain dew sit out and go flat first before pitching yeast so the carbonation wouldn't fuck things up

It will never be "under control", but if you never have another drop, a year or two down the line the craving will only happen every other day and reasonably mild. Just like exercise and work, the pain never goes away, you just get callouses on your brain and live with it.

Umm actkually it would be more expensive (and also possibly tax rape) to distill it or add distilled alcohol into it, malt liquor simply has more malt/grain/sugar and optionally tougher yeast that will readily ferment all of that into higher abv.

Zatarains makes a good root beer concentrate, 2oz bottle makes five gallons. I put two of them in six gallons with a teaspoon of vanilla extract and brown sugar. Has sulfites but my yeast usually handle it OK if you're looking for a hard soda. I ferment in primary then bottle it with sugar to carb and sucralose for sweetness. Could also risk bottle bombs and just keep tasting until it's fizzy enough, then refrigerate the bottled batch once it's about right.

it's very low in ph, is saturated with CO2 you better get rid off, might have preservatives as well
i don't think it's worth it. just ferment apple juice that's also around 100g/L of sugar and probably cheaper
