the first (and only) batch was somewhere around 10 days. It was pretty sour. After bottling the first batch, I noticed it was quite sour. I added a star anise to each individual bottle (that were put into the refridgerator) the day before consuming them. This cut the sour-ness a lot. It also added a great taste to them.

I'll have to try it with black tea on my next brew. My current one is like 8 days or something, I dunno I just kind of taste it and see what I think haha.

Raisins sounds like an interesting way to put in some sugar/flavor.
