How To Make Aubergine (Egg Plant) Wine

Homemade Wine Recipe

Ingredients: Aubergine (Egg Plant) Wine

3 lb / 1,350 grams aubergine
2 1/2 lb / 1,100 grams sugar
2 tablespoons of citric acid
1 pint orange juice
Water up to 1 gallon
1/2 pint strong black tea
Yeast nutrient
Wine yeast

Method - What to Do

Peel and slice the aubergines and boil until soft. Pour into a fermentation bucket over the sugar, stirring vigorously to dissolve. When cool add the orange juice, citric acid, strong tea, yeast nutrient and wine yeast. Cover and leave to ferment for two days stirring daily. Using a fine sieve strain the liquid into a demijohn and use an airlock to seal the jar.

Store in a warm place and allow the fermentation to work. When fermentation has ceased, rack the wine into a clean jar and place in a cooler environment and leave for a further few months. When the wine is clear and stable siphon into bottles.
