Re: Latest TC tastes great

Re: Latest TC tastes great
I've added cranberry to a few now, it just rounds out the flavour a bit without being identifiable as itself, at 1/2litre in the gallon.
Surprisingly, the ginger doesn't stand out as ginger either, just adds more depth and warmth to the overal effect. I thought with that amount it'd be clearly recognisable. The last ginger TC I did was clearly a ginger TC.
