Here is a quick recipe from "A Dash of Elegance" for a pepper sherry.
There are quite a few other flavored sherry recipes in there as well, but
this is the first I plan to make.

Hot Pepper Sherry
6 to 8 habaneros
4 to 5 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
1 bottle dry cocktail sherry

Wash and dry the peppers.  Pierce them in several places with a fork and
put them in a wide mouthed jar.  Add the garlic and peppercorns.  Add the
sherry, cover, and store in a cool dark place for 2 weeks.  Strain the
sherry through several layers of cheesecloth into the original bottle.
Discard the peppercorns but reserve the garlic and habaneros in a small jar
with just enough sherry to cover and refrigerate and use with appropriate
recipes.
