When teaching children, the subject for the week was the wedding at Cana, and they changed wine to “super special party drink.” Not sure what they were thinking, as what kid would not love to have some super special party drink. Hum, maybe that is what fueled the sales of Boone’s Farm Strawberry Hill back in my high school days…

We have a lady in our church who bakes ours. It definitely has some leavening in it. I have used flour tortillas for communion, baked until a little crispy on the oven racks, which works well, and is a little closer to authentic.
