Sorry for another sloe gin thread guys but I have a bit of a prob. I decanted my Sloe gin yesterday and of course tried a small nip or three while doing so, trouble is, although it has a very nice taste and is a nice dark red clear liquid it is almost syrupy and extremely sweet. Does this mean I have used too much sugar or has it not turned to alcohol yet? It is also very blow your head off.....one glass and I am everybodys!
