11 years ago, through a very dear college friend of mine, I was
introduced to the ocean of flood blogging. Since then it’s been a beautiful
journey learning may other aspects of cooking, different cuisines and finally
into cake decoration. Many fellow bloggers become very dear friends, I interacted
with many lovely readers and was acknowledged by some
leading publishers too…. I had never thought that a spontaneous
decision to start a blog would bring me so far. It was all
because of my dear readers whose continuous encouragement took me
so far, whereas many fellow bloggers of that time have completely
disappeared from the blogging field! Thank you so much for the love, support
and trust you guys have given me…
I had planned
to post this Strawberry Wine for New Year, but the first post of the year got
delayed this far :D... I made this wine exactly a year ago, that’s how I got
this crystal clear colour. When you make the wine it will be really red in
colour but with aging the colour changes like this one has….
It’s Strawberry season in this part of the world and it’s a really
good wine, so try to make use of those beautiful strawberries while it is
in season!
Strawberry Wine
Ingredients:
Fresh Strawberries - 1kg
Sugar - 1.25kg
Water - 4 litres
Yeast - 1/2 tsp
Method:
- Boil the water and keep aside to cool down slightly to lukewarm.
- Wash the fresh strawberries well. Wipe water from each strawberry very well and chop it finely and keep aside.
- In a big bharani / bottle add sugar, chopped strawberries and lukewarm water, stir well. Sprinkle yeast on top and mix well after 5 minutes.
- When the mixture cools down completely tie the bottle with a clean cloth or close with lid little loose.
- Stir this mixture every day for 5 minutes with a clean and dry wooden spoon.
- After 20 days, strain the mixture through a cheese/ muslin cloth in to a clean dry bottle.
- Keep this again for 14 days untouched. After 14 days strain the wine again, pour it in to clean dry bottles and use.

Which yeast do u use ?
ReplyDeleteI use bakers yeast, if wine yeat is available in your place you can use that.
DeleteYou can add 100 GM's of whole wheat with 10 GM's cinnamon and 5 gms cloves to the above recipe. The wine ferments really well with it. It also lends good texture and overall taste of the wine.will definitely try with strawberry.

ReplyDeleteHello Swapna
ReplyDeleteI am in process of Strawberry wine
2 kg Strawberry
4 litre of Water and I added 3 kg of sugar
But after 5 days I found its too sweet is it because of extra sugar (3kg) is it OK or how can I lessen the sweetness, it's still 5 days now
DeleteAccording to my recipe for 2kg strawberry you need 8 litres of water and 2.5kg sugar. You only added half of water and more sugar!! Please follow the recipe when you are making it! Sweetness definitely reduces while the wine ages but in your case I don't think so.... Either you can make another batch with less sugar and mix it both or you can add boiled and cooled water to this batch, but I am not sure if the wine becomes bad or not! Anyways Good luck!
