I made some damson gin about 30 years ago. Wasn't too impressed so pushed it to the back of the cupboard. 10 years later we found it when moving and it had become the most luscious, rich liqueur type consistency and flavour.
I don't like vodka but we have friends who liked bloody Mary so I made some chili vodka and lemon vodka to make it a bit more lively. Discovered it's a bad idea to leave the chili in too long as it becomes volcanic.

We had a booze shop here that sold something called Chilli beer.
Son, whose spelling was never first class, thought it was beer from Chile and bought some.
