My mother-in-law's is always very strong, which neither my husband or I particularly like, so we dilute it with either cider or a citrus blend tea to soften the blow without adding any more alcohol to the mix. You can experiment with flavours of tea and cider to see what you like best. We like pear cider, but that's a personal choice. MIL's is so strong that we dilute it 50:50!<br /><br />And Marie - I love this post! I adore potatoes in every way, shape and form.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04088355577823930786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-43514559234500045712013-11-25T16:57:37.519+00:002013-11-25T16:57:37.519+00:00Kristin, as I don't drink I can't really a...Kristin, as I don't drink I can't really answer your question with any authority.

Do you know the best way I could dilute it?
