Mixed Fruit Wine!

In water one sees one's own face;
But in wine one beholds the heart of another. ~ French proverb

My mom was a great cook; she used to make a variety of wines, jams, pickles and squashes…… I learned the basics of wine making from her and I have since experimented with different types …..Since this is my mom’s birthday week, I thought of posting a few recipes that I learned from her…… It’s still difficult to accept that she is no more in this world….. I miss sharing my ups and downs and my never ending talks with her, but unfortunately God had different plans…... I hope she is watching us from heaven… Today I am sharing one of my most successful wine recipes…. And with Christmas only two and half months away and for those who wanted to have homemade wine it’s high time you started making it at home

Method:

• Wash and clean the fruits and finely chop them and put them in clean big wine bottle.
• Boil water and sugar and pour this boiled water into the chopped fruits.
• When it becomes cool add yeast and tie the bottle with a clean cloth or close with the lid a little loose.
• Stir this mixture every day for some time.
• After 20 days strain the mixture to a clean bottle and keep this again for 2 weeks untouched.
