Steve,
I have 2 resources for recipes, Jack Keller's site and Terry Garey's book on
homemade winemaking. Usually, I look at Terry's recipe and compare it to
the recipes on Jack's site. Then, I try to pick one that I think we'll like
the best or create one which I think we'll like. There are a few things
which I won't use in a wine recipe, for example, one is lemons as the acid
requirement. I made this batch with lemons once and didn't like the lemon
aftertaste. I tried oranges the next time, and the wine was much better
IMHO. While the carrot whiskey does sound interesting, I'll probably start
with a basic carrot wine recipe. Go for and let us know. Good-luck.
