Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Homemade Fruit Wine.
Step 1
Start by gathering all the ingredients you'll need for this delightful homemade wine.
Step 2
In a spacious 1-gallon jug, mix together the sugar, thawed juice concentrate, and active dry yeast.
Step 3
Next, fill the jug with cold water, but remember to leave a little room at the top.
Step 4
Give it a good stir or shake until the sugar is fully dissolved and everything is nicely blended.
Step 5
Now, take a large balloon, rinse it out, and carefully stretch it over the opening of the jug.
Step 6
To keep it secure, use a rubber band to hold the balloon in place.
Step 7
Find a cool, dark spot in your home to place the jug.
Step 8
Within a day, you’ll notice the balloon starting to puff up—this is a sign that the fermentation magic is happening as the sugar transforms into alcohol.
Step 9
After about six weeks, when the balloon has deflated, your homemade wine is ready to be enjoyed.
Step 10
Pour yourself a glass, savor the fruits of your labor, and remember to drink responsibly!.
