Surprise! Perry, cider made from pears
Unintentional perry! On Monday I ran a batch of overripe pears through my steam juicer, then left the full jars of juice on the counter until I had time to do something with them. I guess this one jar wasn’t as clean as was intended, because I just opened it to a delightful popping sound, and discovered I had a litre of a delicious, fizzy, lightly boozy beverage! I’d intended to throw all the juice into a small carboy with a bit of champagne yeast anyway, so it’s nice to have a preview 😉
