Material
-Black grapes: 1 kg
-Sugar: 400–500 grams (according to taste)
-Yeast: 5 grams (optional, for aroma)
-Water: 1.5 to 2 liters
-Whole spices: cinnamon, cloves, cardamom (small quantity)
Method of preparation
1. Prepare the grapes
First of all, separate the grapes from the stalk. Wash thoroughly with clean water. Now in a big vessel, lightly crush the grapes with hands or a presser, so that the juice comes out. Do not separate the peel and seeds, it is from these that the color and flavor come.
2. Cook the juice
Place the crushed grapes on the gas and boil on low flame for 10-15 minutes. This will allow the grape juice to come out properly and any kind of natural fermentation will stop. Now turn off the gas and let the mixture cool down.
3. Add sweetness and fragrance
When it cools down, add sugar and mix well. If you want a light wine-like aroma, you can add yeast in very small quantity, but do not keep the mixture for too long. Tie the whole spices in a cloth bundle and add them, so that the aroma comes but there is no bitterness.
4. Filter and keep
Now filter this entire mixture through a clean cloth or sieve. Fill the juice in a glass jar or bottle. Close the lid slightly and keep it in the refrigerator. The flavor will set well in 24 to 48 hours.
5. Method of serving
While serving, serve it cold. If you want, you can add some soda water on top or garnish with orange peel. This drink will look like red wine and will also be special in taste.
things to keep in mind
-Do not keep this drink outside for long, store it in the refrigerator only.
-If you are making it for children then do not add yeast at all.
-Using fresh grapes improves both taste and color.
