- I made this Mint wine last
- April. It’s a really sweet dessert wine with a subtle mint
- taste.... Even though you can consume it after 30 days, the wine looks
- little cloudy. I got this very clear wine after keeping it for almost
- 6 months. So I suggest you allow this wine to age for approximately 6 months after which you will get a
- mild mint flavored clear wine.
- Ingredients:
- Mint -2 bunches or 4 cups
chopped
Thoroughly wash mint leaves and chop and place it in a big vessel.
Bring half of water to a boil and pour boiling water over mint.
Mix and cover the vessel with a lid and stand for around one hour.
Strain the mint liquor into a sterilized fermentation bottle / bharani.
Boil the remaining water and cover the strained mint leaves with boiling water and wait for another one hour, strain into the bottle and discard the leaves.
Add all of the other ingredients to the bottle like sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest and yeast.
Stir the mixture well until all of the sugar has completely dissolved.
Cover the bottle and stir the mixture every day for 30 days.
After 30 days, strain the mixture through a cheese/ muslin cloth into clean and dry bottles and use.
After 30 days you can consume the wine, but it will be little cloudy and not very clear. If you allow the mint wine to stand for 6 months you will get a very clear wine like in the picture.
