Grape Ape

Darjeeling tea is a tea from the Darjeeling district in West Bengal, India. For this batch we used 10 cups water, 14 grams of DavidsTea Second Flush Darjeeling, 1 cup sugar and 1 1/2 cup starter buch.

We harvested this on New Years Eve for our last bottles of 2015. We added 1/4 cup of concord grape juice and a tbsp of sugar in bottles #61-65. We cut our last Grape Ape second fermentation to  four days so we’ll see if that’s fizzy enough.
