It's on its 2nd Month now (started 2nd of June 2011), and it tastes great! I think I'll hold off for longer and wait some more.<br /><br />Now, the problem with my incremental testing is that my experiment has decreased in volume. I wonder, what if I mix actual coconut water in it? Will it still preserve as if it were a normal infusion? I certainly do not care if the alcohol content decreased a bit - in fact that might be a welcome experience that would increase its drinkability.<br /><br />Many thanks!<br />RandyStrayDoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17327195089577332016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4141792042986791030.post-64443851805053827482007-09-09T17:17:00.000-05:002007-09-09T17:17:00.000-05:00Excellent website.

Coconut is so dense and fatty that I doubt the vodka will be able to get in there to soak up the flavor. Maybe breaking it up into smaller chunks or crushing it would make things work better?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4141792042986791030.post-58321271827863874782007-03-01T12:24:00.000-05:002007-03-01T12:24:00.000-05:00I've heard it said both ways.

We added sugar for our first couple of infusions, and haven't really done it since. I don't think it makes a big difference, but with this experiment we'll take all the help we can get.Brendanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06919829612895112132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4141792042986791030.post-89041670256395111792007-03-01T10:25:00.000-05:002007-03-01T10:25:00.000-05:00Does sugar really help set an infusion, or is it j...Does sugar really help set an infusion, or is it just to make it taste better? ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
