Hey Pilot,
Why don't you post that recipe for whiskey? In the mean time, here's a balloon wine recipe that I've tried and it actually makes pretty decent table wine.

In a one gallon, or 4 liter glass wine bottle, mix the following:

2 1/4 tsp dry yeast( I usually put this in first with a little lukewarm water to dissolve it.

2 cans of 100% grape juice ( white for white wine, concord for red)

1 1/2 - 2 cups of sugar, depending on how dry or sweet you like your wine

Fill the rest of the bottle with lukewarm water

stretch medium sized balloon ( I think 12 inch) open end over mouth of wine bottle.

Place in cool place ( basement) for 6 weeks. Check the balloon for the first week or so to make sure it hasn't popped or has holes. If so, replace with new balloon.

After 6 weeks, strain through a paper coffee filter into smaller wine bottles. I bought a corker and store the bottles on their side in the basement.

Enjoy!
