Title: Pear Juice?
Post by: Greg2013 on February 09, 2013, 07:11:34 PM
Why is it that pear juice seems to be non existent in the shops while you can get every other juice under the sun? I am looking for approx ten litres of pure pear juice. No I ain't gonna juice pears myself LOL

Laptop working again?
It was a shit growing season this year for domestic apples and pears, but I saw some in my very large Tescos in Arklow.
Grape juice is easier to get hold of and cheaper

If you can't get your hands on the pear juice I'd totally recommend  this (http://www.homebrewwest.ie/on-the-rocks-cider-pear-2128-p.asp) kit for a cider.

Just brew in the normal way with 1.3kg of brewing sugar.  You also get a little pouch of concentrated juice for priming.  Very refreshing!!  8-)
