Jens,

I used white vinegar, and the spices, lemon and garlic, NO heat processing as 
I keep them in the refrigerator.  If you heat process it makes them mushy 
IMHO.  They age and develop a wonderful flavor.  Great for snacking or 
cooking, but we are eating them mainly straight oh yum.  Great popped into a 
Martuni.

I use a normal Spanish Sherry.  Infact I put some in Extra Fino Sherry and 
some in a bottle of Bristol Cream Sherry.

Oh, and they are awesome in Vodka  LOL  Definitely what we call an ice 
breaker at a party!

I also love them in honey.  Last year I also chopped Habaneros and placed in 
a jar of honey as it is a natural preservative.  Pack chopped chiles in a 
jar, and pour the honey over them.  This is so wonderful that sweet-hot!

Also suggest Dave's site for great instructions!
