From left to right. Blueberry brandy with home made blueberry syrup for color and flavor, 48% ABV. Blueberry brandy, no additives, 54% abv. Flamin hot Cheeto liquor with 15 dehydrated Carolina reapers added to it for a few hours (it’s so spicy it makes my stomach hurt) 48% abv. Cheeto liquor 48% abv. All my fermenters are empty now. Let’s see what else we can do. Think I’m gonna do a beer and another meme spirit, but sadly I can’t find bulk sour warheads in a single flavor online so I’ve gotta spin my wheel of random shit to brew

I wouldn't use warheads as their cores are chalky and it'd probably mess with your fermentation pH.

Maybe make Mountain Dew (aka moonshine) out of Mountain Dew?

The sourness is from an acid, so maybe it'll balance out?

it's possible, I tried making a candy wine once and the chalk from the centers of the atomic fireballs messed it up pretty badly, not that I really expected it to be good, but...

Obviously warheads are sour while atomic fireballs aren't so ymmv
