I have been using growlers for bottling for a few years now and haven't had any "pop" yet. I use the same amount of bottling sugars as when I use normal bottles. I do tighten the cap on tight and then wrap several wraps of electrical tape around the cap and growler to help hold the cap on.

I'm thinking of the same thing. We have tons of fat prickly pears, why not try em in a recipe? My wife make jelly out of them, so I figure I'll steal some of the fruits after she cleans them and try them in a recipe. I haven't found a recipe that would suit them though.
