    I love alcoholic Ice team, one of my favourite things to do is for a 4lt (~1 gallon-ish) batch is brew up 2lts of really strong tea and combine it with 2lt of some sort of juice, usually apple + something else, and then add extra sugar depending on desired strength. ferment it out and bottle condition to a high fizz (4.5 co2 vol). love it!!!

    I love your video's, really appreciate whole content you create. It's different then others and this is what I really love - not only beer (but I am homebrewer), nice combo's of ingredients, lot's of knowladge and you inspired me to make some other stuff then only beer so I'm going to use more my test 5l keg. Now I am fighting with myself what to prepare as third drink for meeting with my friends out of the city - I think will be some Hard Tea with some type of fruits. And now I am struggling because to stabilize fruits I'm looking again on every video to check where was more info about it :D So now I have a request to You - could you prepare separate video about stabilization in the same format like you did about yeast nutrients? Would be awesome for future to everyone to find it quickly! Maybe also with some recipe on sour beer with lots of fruit with stabilization? Thanks again for your work. Cheers from Poland!

      Generally no if you are adding to a keg, in my experience the yeast is strong and plentiful to overpower anything that might come in, and the colder temps keep things at bay, but if you want to sterilize the fruit before adding you can totally do that to be safe.
