What are the ratios of sugar, water and plum wine needed to make a homemade plum wine recipe?

Assuming you are making a simple plum wine recipe, you will need the following ingredients:

-4-5 lbs of plums
-1 lb of sugar
-1 gallon of water
-1-2 cups of plum wine

The ratios of these ingredients will depend on how sweet or dry you want your plum wine to be. A good rule of thumb is to use 2 parts sugar to 1 part water. So, for every 1 lb of sugar, you will need 1/2 gallon of water. For our recipe, this would mean using 2 lbs of sugar and 1 gallon of water.

If you want a sweeter plum wine, you can add more sugar to the recipe. For a drier plum wine, you can add less sugar or even substitute part of the sugar for another sweetener like honey.

As for the plum wine, you will need 1-2 cups for our recipe. This will add some sweetness and depth of flavor to your plum wine. You can adjust the amount of plum wine depending on how strong you want the flavor to be.

Now that you have all your ingredients, it’s time to get started on your plum wine!

First, wash your plums and remove the stems. Cut the plums in half and add them to a large pot or fermentation vessel.

Next, add the sugar and water to the pot and stir everything together until the sugar has dissolved.

Next, add the plum wine and give everything a final stir.

Cover the pot or vessel with a clean cloth and let it sit for 3-4 weeks in a cool, dark place.

After 3-4 weeks, it’s time to bottle your plum wine. Sterilize some bottles and funnel, and then carefully transfer your plum wine into the bottles. Be sure to leave an inch or two of headspace at the top of the bottles.

Cork or screw on the lids and store the bottles in a cool, dark place. Your plum wine will be ready to drink after 6-8 months, but it will be even better if you give it a year to age. Enjoy!

How long does it take to make plum wine?

It takes about six weeks to make plum wine. This assumes that you are using fresh plums and have everything else you need on hand. If you are using dried plums, it will take longer – about two months.

The process of making plum wine is relatively simple. First, you need to prepare the plums. This involves washing them and removing the pits. Next, you will crushing the plums and adding them to a fermenting vessel. You will then add water and sugar to the vessel and stir to combine.

After the plums have fermented for about a week, you will need to strain the liquid from the solids. Once this is done, you can transfer the liquid to a clean vessel and add more sugar. The amount of sugar you add at this stage will depend on your personal preferences.

After the wine has been properly stabilized, you can bottle it and enjoy!
