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!!!
Just kegged this today. Local stores only had rock melon, So I used that. Poured a glass off straight after kegging. Pretty tasty. I'm looking forward to it being fully carbed
Welcome back Trent!
Thanks Steve, glad to be back!
Never thought about green tea until gound your videos and cantaloupe sounds like a winner i was thinking that was a honeydew which also i think might be fun and differentbthanks for the ideas
Brilliant!! I’d love to try this with honey ❤
Awesome video dropped at the perfect time! Thanks Brushow
Thanks for watching Zach!
Sounds like another winner, I've got to get around trying making a hard tea this summer! Welcome back!
Definitely! A perfect hot summer day sipper
I've been wondering where you disappeared to! Good to see a fun weird recipe!
Haha just taking care of life stuff but I’m back now!
@@TheBruSho glad all is well!
This looks amazing. It might also be a good candidate for a Mead/Melon/Tea seltzer. :-) Thanks for sharing!
this is exactly what i needed, but i only have a few bottles, a box of ilex paraguayensis, rubber bands, that plastic thing for food, some pots a few baloons, brown sugar, brandless dry yeast AND A DREAM
yeah, my workplace will look like the season one of breaking bad, but that aint never stopped me
Temperatures are starting to rise around here and I was starting to think about brewing some hard tea, and here you are dropping the perfect recipe, keep up the great work!
Awesome! Let me know how it turns out
@@TheBruShocan I substitute the green tea for regular black tea?
@@28ebdh3udnav yeah I did a black tea with peach version of this on the channel before
@@TheBruSho awesome. I got a lot in the pantry and some melons as well. I usually don't use anything but bread yeast because in my opinion, I get get the yeasty flavor but also a good amount of carbonation
I love iced green tea, melon is my favorite fruit, and who doesnt like booze?
Im making a batch of this today, melon is in season where I live and summer just started here :)
Thanks Trent
I've never thought about using these ingredients in an alcoholic beverage. I'd love to try this one out sometime.
Give it a go. Super easy to whip up and experiment with
Came across this looking for a knock off twisted tea... gonna give this a go for sure.
I did a peach hard black tea that might be a bit closer to twisted tea. Give that one a try too!
@@TheBruSho Sweet! Ill look it up, thanks!
Another tasty tea! Great video.
definitely have to try this.
welcome back Trent....hope the relocation suits y'all.......be safe...
Thank you Theron! Cheers man
Awesome video! Yet another brew I'm going to have to add to my to do list!
Thanks Daryl, would love to see your take on one
Great video Trent!
You always have some super awesome ferments Trent! Great video looks delicious!!
Thanks man, always looking for something new to try
Looks great Trent!
Thanks man! Cheers 🍻
Great drink to brew!🍻🍻
Cheers Raul!
This is going in the list.
Love it! Cheers
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!
Looks soooo yummy! 😋
U kno it!
This looks amazing Trent, great job!! I really never thought to ferment a tea by adding some fermentable sugar. Iced tea is our favorite summer drink and we plan on making something like this one day. Best, David and Rachel from CFS!
Thank you! And yeah it’s a perfect drink for the summer heat. Big fan of your channel btw, keep it up!
@@TheBruSho thanks, that means a lot :)
You're the best-est.
All the prayers from India 🇮🇳
I wish you someday try the Kajri cultivar of Musk Melons someday for your Cantaloupe replacement, it's fragrance would radiate everywhere.
Thank you, and that sounds super interesting I hope I can try it some day
Good stuff!
Thanks Patrick!
HE'S BACK
Let the grind begin!!
I knew it!! Awesome!
You win!!
@TheBruSho I'm going to try this today. Thanks for the video.
@@george_aurelius sweet let me know how it turns out!
You had me at Juicy Melons...
I was very tempted to go a certain way with the broll but I dialed it back ha
I'm doing a honey blueberry ale with all grain
Sounds delicious!
@@TheBruSho I will let you how it turn out
Looos great, I currently have this fermenting away. I have kegs but would the fruit not go bad sitting in the keg eventually? I did a double batch so it may take a while to get through it!
Looks delicious - I have some DAP and yeast energizer - how much should I add for a 2 gallon batch of this recipe?
I think they say 1/2 g per gallon. But I just kind of eye balled it here. The package should also have some recommendations for you as well
Wow this one looks spectacular. I wonder if it would work well served on nitro?
Wow now that’s an idea!
Would you consider more tea next time for a stronger tea flavor after fermentation? I'm going to try an organic ginger peach green tea bag. Hoping the ginger & peach flavors from the brewed tea carry over after fermentation. Going to start it now!
Yeah you could do that for a more intense flavor. Sounds like an awesome idea for a recipe
Thanks, my husband & I love your show! Just started watching about 3 weeks ago and we've tried a cider, hard kombucha, and the rose already! 🎉
Can you confirm if the is melon cantaloupe? I’ve only ever seen orange cantaloupe. This looks like honeydew.
Definitely going to give this a go, so just want to make sure I use the right melon! Thanks
I may have misspoke or wrote the wrong thing but this is a honeydew. But cantaloupe could work too!
@@TheBruSho thank you, that makes a lot more sense lol!
Can’t wait to make this. My plan is to do honey instead of the sugar. Any thoughts on the idea of a small dry hop with something like Citra?
@@samwallace2191 that would probably be fantastic!
Fermentation seems to have stalled after 14 hours after pitch. May have not added enough lutra. Can I add more at this point?
Yep you can add more if you need to. But check the gravity to see where it’s at
Looks mighty tasty. Ok to use Voss Kviek?
Yeah I think that would work, could add a nice citrusy touch to it
@@TheBruSho Sweeeeet
I have a dumb question: since I don't have a keg, should I infuse the fruits before or after the stabilization process?
If you want it to retain sweetness then stabilize before adding fruit
Could you carbonate this? How would you carbonate it?
Can I use mango instead of melon? This looks like an awesome summer drink!! Cheers
For sure! Whatever fruit you want
@@TheBruSho ok, great, thanks. I saw your video on the peach version of this from a while back, id use peach but my peach tree is currently past the time frame where you get fruit, maybe at the end of this year begining of next, I'll make it with my peaches, I usualy give them to my neighbours but not gonna happen next time haha. they are the most glorious white flesh peaches. But I want to make a 3gal brew of this soon so store bought mangoes it is! Lol.
@@Quinny1394 oh man that fresh peach flavor would be phenomenal. You def gotta try that when the time is right
do you think this would work with cucumber instead of melon? no idea if cucumber even has any fermentable sugar in it but it sounds good in my head..
Cucumber doesn’t really have fermentables but it certainly has a flavor and could work nicely here
@@TheBruSho thats kinda what i was thinking
Can I use a bread yeast
yup! it's not as "clean" fermenting but it will work in a pinch
Honeydew
So basically, you can throw yeast into any sugary liquid and turn it into an alcoholic beverage? Sicccccccc.
Ha pretty much
Do you need to sanitize the fruit?
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.
