beverage kits

[countrygirl]

i did the niagra mist sangria zinfandel blush and it was such a hit...
it's all gone
i've had 3 requests to "do again", lol...
but i was wondering for those who've done these kits, is wine expert or rj's beverage kits any better? just want to put a quality product together. even though i wasn't overly impressed with the niagra mist, my family and friends gave it rave reviews!

I haven't done any of the WE mist kits, so I can't say. I have heard good things, though.
I have done 5 of the RJS Orchard Breezin' kits and like you kit was, they have been real hits.

(When I get invited to a summer party, I am "encouraged" to bring along my summer wines... I usually like to have two different varieties on hand.)

None of my RJS OB kits have lasted more than the 3 months of summer.

I have only done WE and Orchard Breezen's. I thought they were both good for $2.00 a bottle price.

I have made a number of Orchard Breezin' and Niagara Mist kits, and a couple of Island Mists. IMO, there's not much difference. Yes, one Green Apple tastes different than another Green Apple, but they're both good (if you like that style of wine).

I tell folks to pick a flavour and colour that they think they will like, and make it. The results will disappear.

BTW, the Niagara Mist Pink Grapefruit Blush is GREAT. Also, the OB Blackberry Merlot.
