Beer, Wine & Spirits - January 2007

I have been using this recipe to make homemade wine for a couple of months now, and although i am pleased with this cheap and easy way to make wine i have been trying to make it a little stronger and don't know how.

Recipe:
http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Homemade-Wine/Detail.aspx

For those unfamiliar with the recipe, it calls for a 12oz juice concentrate, 4 cups sugar, yeast, and water. Now i realize the combination of yeast, sugar and the different enzymes in the concentrate is what makes the alcohol, so would doubling the amount of sugar, yeast and concentrate make a stronger wine?

Or could you increase the amount in fractions, like add an extra 2 cups sugar, and 6oz of concentrate?

I was thinking since there is less water it would be less watered down, and there would be a larger combination of sugar, yeast and concentrate to create more alcohol.

What im getting at basically--

Is there anyway to make this homemade wine have a higher alcohol content?

As I work in an argentine restaurant in London(UK), was wondering what's the most popular spirit/cocktail in there.. I'm starting a whole new cocktails list and really need that info to make sure that Argentina isn't as far as it actually, and geographically, is!!! Thank's!

Does anyone have any idea what they used to drink in the Wild West in saloons, and also how it was made?

You see in old movies that they drink stuff that looks really potent - some movies even joke that it burns a whole in the bar if it's spilt. I'm sure the whiskey they drank back then was completely different to the stuff we drink now - but I want to know in what way it was different.

I have heard around that this is a good tasting beer and it is a "Dark Lager." I would like to know what makes this beer different from the rest and what are everyone else's opinions on this beer.
Is it worth buying?

of. I mean, granted I understand when you drink you're responsible for what happens, but something doesn't seem right..

So.... I work Friday-Monday, jacked up schedule, I guess that's what happens when your a Public Servant right? ha! well... not really a servant, but I feel like it sometimes... anyhow! I get tues-thurs off, and well... on my days off, I like to enjoy a little more than a few drinks! normally on my own cuz no one wants to drink because they have to work the next day! it being on the weekday My Days OFF! so when the weekend gets here for everyone else! I get invited to kick it or go to parties or go out, and of coarse... i'm not gonna go and stay dry, so I'll have just a few drinks to casualy socialize w/ the friends and people, Well.... people are starting to tell me I have a "Drinking Problem" because I seem to be drinking a lot, I feel I don't have a Drinking Problem because I drink when I want to, and its never that I have to, Does that Make me an alcoholic?
