This wine making recipe yields easy homemade wine. You can choose whatever flavor you like, but my favorite is red. To complete this project, you will need a sterile milk jug, a large latex balloon, and a rubber band. This wine is a bit stronger than regular table wine and is excellent for cooking and drinking.
Ingredients
- 4 cups sugar
- 1 can frozen juice concentrate - any flavor except citrus , 12 fluid ounce
- 1 package active dry yeast , .25 ounce
- 3.5 quartss cold water , or as needed
Instructions
-
1
Gather all ingredients.
-
2
Combine sugar, juice concentrate, and yeast in a 1-gallon jug. Fill the jug the rest of the way with cold water. Stir or shake well until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is well combined.
-
3
Rinse out a large balloon; fit it over the opening of the jug. Secure the balloon with a rubber band.
-
4
Place jug in a cool dark place. Within a day, you will notice the balloon starting to expand. As sugar turns to alcohol, gasses will release and fill up the balloon.
-
5
When the balloon has deflated, wine is ready to drink. It takes about 6 weeks total.
