6. I was wondering what you used it for.
I thought jelly/syrup but wine sounds like a much better idea!

Is the fruit real sweet?

8. I haven't had saguaro, only prickly pear, but traditionally
it was made and then consumed during ceremonies and dances to bring the summer rains

the seeds can be ground too.
