Canadian Whiskey
2 lb Wheat
2 lb Raisins
1 Lemon
4 Oranges
3 lb Sugar
1 oz Yeast
5 Qts Water <10 pints>
1 Tablespoon of freshly made tea
Boil half of the water with half of the sugar for 1 min. Pour the solution over the wheat and raisins. Put into a fermentation vessel and squeeze in the juice of 1 lemon. Cut up the oranges and the peel, then add these to the solution. Using your hands, squeeze and massage the oranges to extract the juice, oils and flavours from the oranges. When the solution cools down, add the yeast. Ferment the solution for 10 days. After fermentation, remove the solids by straining. Put the liquor into a gallon jar and add the tea. Boil the rest of the sugar and water for 1 min. When the water is cool, add to the liquor. Cover, and fit a fermentation lock. Leave the solution to ferment fully.....Enjoy
