This week on Short Pour we are checking out Hopshot from Meriwether Cider and our topic for the week is Invisible ink. We explore early uses of invisible ink. I think a lot of us have tried some basic version of this with something like lemon juice and we explore lots of other compounds used. Invisible inks played a big role in a few different major wars and you won't believe the things people used for their inks. Some messages were scratched into hard-boiled eggs, bananas, and some of the inks were a little more man-made than we would like to think! We also look at some of the convoluted steps to reading the invisible ink and how it started to turn into a several step process just to get the message written or to show up. Join us for some laughs through this journey and a short and sweet review of the cider!
