CHers:

I knew I'd seen this recipe somewhere. Someone sent it in a while ago.
Haven't tried it yet, but the idea is tempting!

Chile Petine Wine


Ok, I dug around through my recipe mess and found the recipe for the
infamous
"Chile Petine Wine".  I'm going to type it in just as it was written by
my
friend.  I know nothing about wine making in general so have no idea how

accurate the instructions are.  I have never made this but I have drunk
some and
remember it as being pretty good (this was also 20 odd years ago and
there were
a number of things I liked that make me cringe now!).

Chile Petine Wine
from a family recipe of Alan Voight

2   good double-handfuls of chile petines
5   apples
2   limes

2   cups honey
1   cup maple syrup
1   almost cup of molasses
