As you may have surmised we’re completely blown away by this product because it really does transform fruit juice into booze. And before you ask, no, we haven’t been drinking. Okay, we have but it’s true! Simply decant your favourite juice (we’re loving cranberry or grape) into a large bottle, pour in the magic powder, pop the rubber stopper and airlock in the lid and let the unfathomable wonder of yeasty science work its magic.

I just couldn't get it to work! Very disappointed, but I'm sure it was probably my own fault. I'll just have to keep trying I guess!Joshua Nash, Birmingham - 7th May 2012
Firebox says: Hey Joshua, that doesn't sound right, drop us a line with your order details on Info@firebox.com and we will look into your options for you.
Excellent kit, does the job perfectly. I used Asda own brand 1L shelf juices which taste great. 3 to 4 days gets it a bit more alcoholic and sharper. If you are struggling to find bottles that fit, 4 pint plastic milk bottles work a treat. A little tip though, best to buy some baby steriliser (~50p for 1L) and sterilise the bottles/equipment first as milk contains bacteria that may kill off the yeast.Nathan Saunders, Ashford, Kent. - 1st February 2012
Firebox says: Hi Nathan, Great tips! and remember people, drink responsibly!
I have made a lovely batch of Cranberry and Raspberry (Ocean Spray) tastes great over Ice and is slightly sparkling. Having filtered mine I can now reseal. The instructions recommend any variety of welchs or Ocean Spray so if there is a flavour you like 'Hooch It'.Petey, Manchester - 7th December 2011
Does this work with cordial (ie vimto/ribena) or with actual fruit juices?Corbin, Preston - 20th September 2011
Firebox says: It works with actual fruit juices much better than with cordials.
Great product. If you cant find a bottle big enough for the bung to go in, just turn the bung upside down and it will fit OVER a normal 2 litre (UK) drinks bottle and seal just as well! The airlock will still fit... Leave somewhere warm for good brewing.Ollie, Bristol - 15th September 2011
Firebox says: Great advice Ollie, cheers!
Can you buy spare sachets?Kathryn, Leeds - 9th May 2011
Firebox says: Not currently.
Looks Great, would it work with fizzy drinks?Joanna Marsh, United Kingdom - 5th May 2011
Will this work on Oasis? I cant find any bottles big enough to fit the airlock in!Sophie, Liverpool - 1st April 2011
Would this product work with a flattened soft drink. I'm thinking as in taking the gases out of say Dr Pepper before adding this?Taz, North Yorks - 28th March 2011
Firebox says: Sorry Taz, it will not work with artificially sweetened juices.
Awesome! Granted 48 hours does produce an alcoholic beverage, it's better to wait about 72 preferably as that makes it taste stronger. I tried with exotic fruit juice, worked like a dream, but there was a sediment that didn't look all too pleasent from the cloudy nature of the drink so I'd suggest using clear liquids, though it still tasted great once sieved!!Chris, Swansea - 24th March 2011
