Interesting. Please keep us informed on how your experiment goes. The 
only two fruits though that I remember being used for period verjuice 
were unripe grapes and crabapples. However, I can't see folks in the 
Middle Ages letting these culls go to waste. Other than feeding them to 
the pigs, I'm not sure how else the unripe apples would have been used.
