Aloha Vinegar Friday!
    
Vinegar is made by a fermentation
      process, which can go fast or slow, taking a few months or a year.
      Sugar in juice is converted into alcohol and carbon dioxide, and
      the alcohol combines with atmospheric oxygen to form acetic acid
      and water. The flavors and aromas of the different varieties of
      vinegar come from the organic acids and esters from the fruit or
      other source material. There are many varieties of vinegar, some
      being apple cider, red wine, white, balsamic, malt, beer, cane,
      coconut, rice, and sherry. The first vinegar was likely made from
      wine.
