As a housewife, I always like to make some delicious food and drinks at home. Recently, I discovered a particularly fascinating drink – plum wine. Ever since I first tried making plum wine, I’ve been in love with this intoxicating taste. In this article, I would like to share with you the steps and precautions for making your own plum wine, as well as some tips to make the plum wine more delicious.
First, let me introduce how to make plum wine. To make plum wine, you first need to prepare some fresh plums. The choice of plums is very important. I usually choose plums with smooth skin and fresh flesh. Then, you’ll also need some sugar and sake. The quality of the sake is also very important. I recommend choosing some good quality sake to make the plum wine more delicious.
Next, there are the steps to make plum wine. First, wash the plums, remove the stems of the plums, and then put the plums and white sugar into a clean sealed jar. Next, pour the sake into the jar until the plums are completely submerged in the sake. Finally, place the sealed jar in a cool and ventilated place and let it sit for 2-3 months.
During this period of rest, there are a few things to pay special attention to. First of all, the sealed jar must be kept clean and well-sealed to effectively prevent the intrusion of air and bacteria. Secondly, plum wine needs to be shaken or turned over in the sealed jar regularly, so that the plums and sake can be fully mixed and promote the release of the aroma and color of the plums. Finally, avoid direct sunlight and avoid moisture in sealed jars, so as to ensure the quality of plum wine.
In addition to the above steps and precautions, there are also some tips to make your plum wine more delicious. First, you can add some lemon peel or vanilla during the making of plum wine to make the plum wine more aromatic. Secondly, you can adjust the amount of white sugar. If you like a sweeter taste, you can add more white sugar; if you like a lighter taste, you can reduce the amount of white sugar. Finally, after the plum wine matures, you can add some ice cubes or soda water according to your personal taste, which can make the plum wine cooler and more refreshing.
In my home, whenever plum wine matures, I invite friends and family to taste my plum wine. I watched them drink one cup after another, looking satisfied, and I was also sincerely happy. In the process, I discovered that making plum wine is not only a cooking skill, but also a way to convey joy and satisfaction to others. I fell in love with the process and the joy of sharing delicious time with family and friends.
Plum wine is a kind of alcohol with a mellow and fruity flavor. Although the production process is complicated, as long as you master the skills, you can easily make delicious plum wine at home. In the cold winter, sipping a glass of homemade plum wine can make people feel warm and comfortable, which is undoubtedly a pleasure.
First, you need to prepare the ingredients: fresh plums, sugar and white wine. Fresh plums should be chosen with smooth skin and plump flesh, so that the plum wine produced will be more delicious. For granulated sugar, use fine granulated sugar because the particles are smaller and easier to fully blend with the liquor. For white wine, choose strong-flavor white wine, which can better extract the flavor of plums.
Next are the production steps. First, pick and wash fresh plums to remove impurities on them. Then, make a few slits on the plums, which will help the plums release their flavor. Put the cut plums into a clean glass bottle, and then add sugar. Based on the weight of the plums, the ratio of added sugar is generally 1:2. Finally, pour the white wine to the top of the bottle, making sure to fill the top of the bottle so that the plums can be soaked better.
After adding the plums to the white wine, you need to wait. The soaking time of plum wine is generally one month to three months, and the length of soaking time is determined according to different taste preferences. During the soaking process, be sure to shake the bottle regularly so that the flavor of the plums can be evenly released into the liquor. At the same time, you must also pay attention to the storage environment. Plum wine needs to be stored in a cool and dry environment to maintain the quality of the wine.
When the plum wine soaking time is up, you can open the bottle and enjoy it. When tasting plum wine, you can smell the wine first and feel the aroma of plums. Then take a small sip, and the mellow fruity flavor will come quietly, making you very happy. In addition to being drunk alone, plum wine can also be used to make a variety of delicious cocktails, such as plum wine cola, plum wine soda, etc., allowing you to experience different flavors while tasting plum wine.
In general, although making plum wine is difficult, as long as you have a rigorous attitude and patience, you can easily make delicious plum wine at home.
