looks like Glastonbury on strong stuff

Have you ever made "Tuna" Wine?

Looks like fun.

However, quite a bit tamer than the Burning Man in Nevada.

Hello Irene. I have never heard of Tuna wine. Sounds foul but would like to see the recipe.

It is made from Cactus

I, along with my family have eaten Prickly Pear while on holiday in Spain. They sell them there on the markets. I didn't realise I was putting my family in danger Well were all still here and the fruit is delicious. Have you tried it Irene? I'm intrigued by the name Tuna wine, as it has nothing to do with fish. Is it a native American word?

Down here it is a local term, and yes I have but we prefer to eat them raw (like an apple). The Tuna Wine can be bought local so I don't need to make it.
Had a friend who tried making the wine but he failed to understand the fermentation and lived on the loo for a few days, (got a gastric super cleaning)! Later he was more inclined to eat them raw like the rest of us
