work? I've make it with grape juice and looking for something
different..thanks!

I've done it with Hawaiian Punch. Tastes great, less filling!

If you are referring to the recipe for Chateau Trailer Park,
I wrote the recipe. It was a joke in response to someone who
wanted to brew something "fast and cheap." The idea was to
make a mash from sugar, water, and Strand's super yeast. This
yeast will ferment out to 18-20% abv in 7 to 10 days. Kool-Aid
was added to mask the heavy yeast taste I have tasted in mashes.

If you want a copy of the recipe, just do a google search on
"chateau trailer park" in the subject line.
