Has anyone ever considered using a neutral spirit(i.e., Vodka) as a sanitizer for certain adjuncts? I’m going to be making a Cherry Wheat pretty soon and, instead of using artificial cherry extract, plan to mix the juice from fresh cherries in a (comparably) small amount of Vodka to kill any of the microbes in the juice.

Here is a link to Denny Conn’s Vanilla Bourbon Porter. I have made this recipe a half a dozen times and its always a winner. http://is.gd/vBj3
