Default Wonder Wine kit - Anyone try these?

OK. I have finished three of these wines and wanted to report back.
At $3.25 a gallon for the instant mix - ya get what you pay for. smile.

I used the max sugar in the recipes, so maybe I went down there. But
this makes really good moon-shine. If you cut it 50% with Sauv.Blanc or
Seltzer water - it's ok. The Loganberry is best with 40% seltzer. The
cherry is best with 50% Sauv. Blanc, and the Peach, well, it will burn
the hair in your nose. Blended it's ok, but not sure looking at my Pinot
Noir or Syrah, or Pinot Grigio - why I'm drinking this "OK" wine.

My wife called it "Kool-Aid" wine. Guess it is. It is genius concept and
maybe I'll try it again with less sugar to bring it down a notch. I am
saving a bottle of each to see what it is like in a year. :*)

back to real wine kits,
DAve

p.s. I will try cooking with it next - maybe a flaming moose.
