Guest guest Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 Hi all, Just to clarify. Gin is not *made from* juniper berries. It is nearly always made from grain mash and *flavored with* juniper berries and sometimes other botanicals. It's origin is a gluten-containing grain. Some producers distill the original grain alcohol, some do not. I believe Bombay does distill it, so for those of you that are ok with distilled gluten-alcohol, it might be ok. For more info look up gin in Wikipedia, or here http://www.foodandbeverageunderground.com/origins-of-Gin.html Perhaps we could make our own gin, using potato vodka as a base?? http://www.jeffreymorgenthaler.com/2007/how-to-make-your-own-gin-without-a-still/ ----- Original Message ----From: Elonwy <elle871@...> Sent: Monday, September 15, 2008 8:00:41 AMSubject: [ ] Re: Soy Sauce and Cocktails..
