Body: <p>I am looking to make a bunch of Cherry Vishniak this year and I am trying to figure out how best to store it for a long period of time (1-5+ years).

  <p>The recipe for the Cherry Vishniak is</p>
  <pre><code>3 cups of water
  3 cups of white sugar
  3 cups of vodka
  ~2lbs of bing cherries
  </code></pre>
  <p>Boil 3 cups of water and 3 cups of sugar to make a simple syrup. Once cool add that to a container with the rest of the ingredients and let sit for a very long period of time.</p>
  <p>I have found reference online to aluminum and stainless containers altering the taste of the contents (mainly aluminum) but nothing really related to how long a 304 stainless steel keg can hold something like a cherry vishniak and if it will alter the taste after a few years.</p>
  <p>Does anyone know if the stainless steel corning keg would work for making some vishniak?</p>

  I would say try it with a small batch!
  
  My only concern would be, if there was a pressure build up (temperature changes) in the keg, you might end up with fizzy vodka/Cherry Vishniak, now that may be interesting (I just googled it as I was typing and it is actually a thing)
  
  You learn something every day, I may try it tomorrow (force carb) in a spare keg.
