Kiwi Wine


How to make Kiwi Wine


As usual I am back after a long hiatus :D :D There are many things which kept me busy ignoring this space of mine. Now that many of my readers & friends started asking me why there are no updates here, I thought I have to find some time to spend here….. after all Christmas is around the corner, here is a wine recipe for all of you to try..… A friend of mine was requesting for this Kiwi Wine for the past several years… I made this wine almost a year back and with aging, the sweetness of this wine reduces significantly and become a very dry wine… So if you prefer sweet wine please add more sugar after fermentation…


Kiwi Wine

Ingredients:

Kiwi – 1 kg
Water – 3 ½ litre
Sugar – 1 kg (250 gm more if you prefer very sweet wine)
Yeast – ¾ tsp

Method:
  • Peel and mash kiwi with a potato masher.
  • Boil sugar & water and add boiled water to the mashed kiwi and mix well.
  • When the mixture becomes lukewarm add yeast and mix well and transfer the mixture into a sterilized bharani / bottle.
  • When the mixture cools down completely tie the bottle with a clean cloth or close with lid little loose.
  • Stir this mixture every day with a clean and dry spoon.
  • After 21 days, strain the mixture through a cheese/ muslin cloth in to a clean dry bottle. You can add more sugar at this time if you prefer sweeter wine.
  • Keep this again for 21 days untouched. After 21 days strain the wine again, pour it in to clean dry bottles and use.

  3. Hi
    When you mention yeast, is it the common yeast we use for baking?

    1. Yes, I use the baking yeast as wine yeast is not available here.
