Default Your Favorite Obscure Fruit for Country Wines

Cranberry. Not from bought juice, but from berries. It took 3+ years in
the bottle to come around, but now it is pretty good - strong - but
good. Makes a good Cosmo base ingredients.
I bought bags of them, crushed them and followed Jacks' recipe. I up'd
the alcohol so it would be around 15%, which is why it took years to
come around.
