How to make homemade watermelon wine

1. Material selection and juice extraction

When making your own watermelon wine at home, you need to choose ripe fresh watermelons with high sugar content as raw materials. Wash them with clean water and remove the peel. Mash the pulp and take out the watermelon juice. Filter the watermelon juice and boil it to 70 degrees. Cool it down and set aside.

2. Preparation of watermelon juice

Use a straw to remove the clear liquid on the top of the watermelon juice, put it into a sterilized container, add an appropriate amount of white sugar so that the sugar content of the watermelon juice is about 20%, add 5% of distiller's yeast, and then add a small amount of sodium sulfate. This can effectively prevent the watermelon juice from deteriorating.

3. Fermentation of watermelon wine

After mixing the watermelon juice, place it in a warm place for fermentation. After 15 days, take out the upper clear liquid again, add sucrose, wait for the sugar to dissolve, boil it in a pot, filter it again, and put it into a jar. At this time, the alcohol content of the watermelon wine is not high, so you can add a small amount of white wine, and then seal the jar. After 60 days, the watermelon wine inside will be ready and can be taken out and bottled. After bottling, keep it in the refrigerator and take it out whenever you want to drink it.
