How To Make Grapefruit Wine

Homemade Wine Recipe

Ingredients: Grapefruit Wine

6 grapefruits
2 1/2 lb / 1,100 grams sugar
Pectin enzyme
Water up to 1 gallon
Yeast nutrient
Wine yeast

Method - What to Do

Place the thin peal from one of the grapefruits into a fermentation bucket and add the juice of all the fruit and seven pints of water, together with the pectin enzyme and yeast nutrient. Cover and leave for 24 hours, then add the sugar, stirring vigorously to dissolve all the sugar. Add the wine yeast and leave covered for two days, stirring daily. Strain into a demijohn and fit 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. When the wine is clear and stable siphon into bottles.
