How To Grow An Apple In A Bottle

Last year I turned 21 and well shopping at A liquor store in St.Cloud MN, There was something that caught my eye. It was A pear in A bottle of brandy, I got to thinking how did The pear get in the bottle. well I couldn't figure it out but after searching GOOGLE I did. They Grown it in the bottle,very cool. Well I don't have an pear tree but I did have an apple tree and thought it could work.

Step 1 Materials Needed

At least one apple tree.
A few empty bottles, Clear Only.
I put up five when I started this experiment and had two of then at the end with one apple in each.
A few feet of coated copper wire, The more bottles the more wire you will need.
A ladder or steeping stool, Helps to get up into the tree.
A helping hand to hold the bottles for you while you secure the bottle to the tree.
patience This takes a lot of time.

Really cool instructable. You need to have a bit of botanical knowledge to really pull this off. Hopefully, if I ever have a fruiting try I can give this a try.

how do you get the apple out to eat it?

My buddy broke the bottle, Its the only way. I would be careful and thoroughly wash it good wouldn't want to eat any glass. I don't recommend it Its more for looks and the cool factor. Thanks for the comment.

That is amazing, although i question why you need alcohol of that strength. If it is just for the taste, why make it so strong?

[pTEARgriffin]

Because It gets diluted by adding the gallon of cider and the gallon of apple juice. the finish product is around 10- 15% by volume 30 proof. Its around the alcohol content of A strong wine. EverClear should always be diluted with Juice, Soda, ETC. Or Used to make homemade liqueurs like apple pie (Drink). Thanks for the comment!

ok then, i figured it was for some reason like that. I know someone who drank everclear straight form the bottle and had to go to the hospital.

Wow! This is cool. I really want to do this now ... I just need to find an apple tree.

In Italy you can see pear trees fully covered bybottle because farmers need pears in bottle for pear spirit (grappa williams).

That would be very cool to see.
