Serves/Makes: 1 gallon
Ready in: > 5 hrs
- 1 package (.25 ounce size) active dry yeast
- 4 cups sugar
- 1 can (12 ounce size) frozen juice concentrate, any flavor except citrus, thawed
- 3 1/2 quarts cold water, or as needed
Re-hydrate yeast by boiling 1/2 cup juice and 2 tablespoons sugar let cool to room temp and add yeast. Combine sugar and 2 cups water in pan and boil till sugar is dissolved let cool to room temperature before adding to jug. Combine the yeast, sugar and juice concentrate in a gallon jug. Fill the jug the rest of the way with cold water. put top on jug and fit with airlock. Place jug in a cool dark place. Within a day you will notice the air lock starting to bubble. As the sugar turns to alcohol the gasses released will cause the airlock to bubble. When the bubbling stops or about a bubble every 15 seconds the wine is ready to drink. It takes about 6 weeks total.
