Ive had some homemade a few times.  I enjoyed it.  I would like to get my hands on somemore, but my friend no longer has a way to distill it.

Previously, she had use a perfume distiller to distill the liquor.  It worked ok, but took a long time (because of the size of the still), and was a pain in the ass to watch...it got burnt atleast a few times that i know of.

As for the recipe, i believe it was the one from erowid.

It's really easy.  PM me if you want my recipe.  You do need a still though.  Those are pretty easy to make if you have an imagination and some creativity
