This is a great discussion. What more could you ask for? Fruit, likker and someone's panties to remove?
Anyway, my contribution to this discussion is the fact powdered sugar does contain cornstarch. It keeps the sugar from getting packed down in shipping. Another interesting thing is that it contains more cornstarch during the summer months due to humidity.
I used hundreds of pounds of this stuff a week, I can't get it off my shoes ... but my dog loves the treat.
I wouldn't used powdered sugar in any finished product that hadn't been fermented yet. I'm assuming the cornstarch and sugar could be fermented out, but have never tried it.
cheers

I've been making a similar liquor for years to give away at Christmas in gift baskets. I fill up a mason jar about 1/3 to 1/2 of the way with sugar cubes, fill the jar with fruit and add enough shine to fill the jar. The cubes disolve fairly quickly.
It's been a tradition to make up the jars on the day after Thanksgiving so they can be ready as Christmas gifts. After making them, they get turned over and shaken once a day to help get the sugar to disolve.
The most requested flavors I make are Apples/Cinnamon, Peach and Pair.
I use tart apples and dredge them in cinnamon - it takes a while to settle out but is by far the favorite of all my friends. I have had luck with a combo of apples and cranberry (without cinnamon) and blueberry.

Did it happen prior to drinking or afterwards....Grayson_Stewart wrote:Repeatedly....through multiple independent studies.
I will have to ask my next date to wear panties first and then I will be able to find out the truth

Finally got around to making this, made a raspberry and blueberry. The blueberry really dosent have a whole lot of flavour (used frozen fruit for both) but the raspberry flavour really comes through and its a nice drink.

Just finished my first batch of the panty dropper recipe. I gave the missus some and she prefers UJSM, dunno what I'm gonna do with near on 3L of the stuff? I probably should have polished the fingerprints of the bottles prior to taking a picture, but anyway.

I was(am) following this recipe, but using pitted cherries in place of strawberries. I am aging in mason jars with the rings and lids. I was shaking it daily an taking the lid of to air it out a bit, and noticed that under the ring the liquid was going black..Anyone ever notice this? It has happened with my pickled garlic before too, but I ignored it then...
Rings look brass, came with the jars when I bought them...Is there a treatment I should do to them before using them? I traded them for a piece of Al foil and an elastic band, but the lids are more convenient...

Yes the black stuff was between the threads and the rim. I was shaking it daily....hourly...and that's how it got there. I was cleaning it off but it was there every other day.
Since people told me to use a different vessel, and I didn't want to I folded a piece of Al foil in half and used it as a lid with an elastic and holding it on till i could find something else I liked. The I grew brains and just screwed the rim over the Al foil. The foil covers the threads and gets a better seal then the mason jars. I can also now save my canning lids for canning...Problem solved!

i used two handful of frozen strawberry and covered it with about 400-500ml
of 95%.
in less then 24h they got white and floating the alcohol is ruby red.
anyone tried using 95% for soaking?
should i remove the ethanol now and start making the syrup?
or it was a bad idea and should trash it all?
white strawberry's looks really creepy...
picture gave them i little more red then they actually have.

its normal for them to turn white .. whats the idea behind using 95 ? most use around 60...I have never used anything that high abv for soaking always 55-60 . and thats considered high to some around here .. this is from the parent site .
Macerating Fruit
(Note that Macerating is the same as steeping. Apparently macerating refers to cold steeping and infusing to hot steeping.)
Fruit liqueurs are quite straight-forward; simply soak your favourite fruit in your strongest alcohol, with 1 cup of fine sugar to every 1 cup of fruit. Let it soak for a couple of months, then strain off the fruit, and dilute the alcohol down to 20-30%.
Wal elaborates on this technique...
Came across a method applicable for most fruit liqueurs that was observed in Poland:
Fruit Liqueur
o Place cleaned fruit in a large jar.
o Add alcohol (50%abv) to cover fruit.
o Seal and macerate for 10 days. The fruit soaks up the alcohol and releases some juice.
o First racking. Gently pour off liquid so as not to blemish fruit.
o Layer fruit in jar with sugar (cover most of fruit).
o Seal jar. The sugar makes the fruit release the alcohol and shrivel slightly. In a couple of days the level of juice in the jar should reach almost to the top of the fruit.
o Second racking. Pour off liquid.
o Layer fruit again with sugar
o Third racking. Pour off liquid.
o Repeat process until only a very small amount of juice is released.
Each racking is sweeter and sweeter. Blend the different rackings to get the desired strength and sweetness. The leftover makes a great syrup for ice-cream.
Another method used is to put the fruit in a large jar, add sugar and place it in a warm place to ferment naturally, using wild yeasts on the skins. The juice is released. Then alcohol is added to stop the fermentation. The alcohol content is usually 20%.
These are folk recipes that are based on experience rather than exactly measured amounts. You see large glass jars on window shelves everywhere. For those who like exact quantities here is a Cherry Liqueur or 'Liqueur de cerise' (French) or 'Cigliegiolo' (Italian)
o 1 kg dark cherries
o 1 litre vodka (50%abv)
o 350 g sugar
Crush the cherries and half of their pits (stones). Place in a large jar with a lid. Add alcohol, seal and leave to macerate for one month. Pour the cherry mixture in a muslin bag and squeeze out juice. Filter and add sugar. Bottle to age.

whats the idea behind using 95 ?
i figure that was what he was getting from is still...pothead
Put frozen strawberries in a large mason jar. Fill the jar. Fill the jar the rest of the way up to the top with 120-150proof clear brandy.
higher % faster results...
dint give that much thought except making a really small batch to learn and see if i like it.
It taste better when you use lower proof.Just eat one of those strawberrys and you will see what I mean.I start mine with 80 proof,and use newmex strawberry nectar,and a jar full of strawberrys with brown sugar,or corn syrup.I like eating those strawberrys.I have a 1/2 gallon jar full of it now.Its a month or so old.

appreciate the info folks are posting, i started a batch of two jars strawberry and two jars mango nearly two weeks ago. all i had on shelf was 190 (comes off a shelf, near a cash register) so that is what i used. hope it goes well, been looking for something a bit more interesting than what i do now which is just mix it up with some fresh lemonade.
