It looks similar to the pictures you posted, but my batch from last year was a brown hue with a much milder flavor. Both years' batches were from my dad's tree, though! My wife wasn't a fan of last year's batch (although my daughter, father, and I were), but she loves this year's.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04052030277245184349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3546223026048419239.post-11547339588673068292011-11-02T00:53:33.840-04:302011-11-02T00:53:33.840-04:30I have no idea why it looks so rosy, mine is alway...I have no idea why it looks so rosy, mine is always brown, but it is lovely!Boho Farm and Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01815251022099585746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3546223026048419239.post-35568243433539646772011-09-29T01:37:44.742-04:302011-09-29T01:37:44.742-04:30I love the shade of it!
