No recipe required

So as you seen in an earlier post today, I got some more ingredients and equipment for making another 1 Gallon brew.
I didn't have a recipe in mind when I went to the supermarket, just that I was planning to try another one with another variety of juice.
I went to Sainsburys and got 3 litres of Apple Juice (56p each) and looked for something different to make it up to the 5 litres.
I saw in the chilled section, a 2 litre carton of Fruit Cocktail Juice for £1.39. This was from produced  from concentrate which is important for the fermentation progress and contains no preservatives so didn't need boiled off.
I just followed the same receipe for the previous two TC's I did the other week, adding Malic Acid, Pectolase, Tannin and Yeast.
Also added an extra 160g of sugar to make this around 8% once again :-)
No idea how this one will turn out, but then it's not exactly costing much anyway if it turns out disgusting!
