I want to have a go at making some wine with "real" fruit, rather than tins and juices..
I got a book its from CJJ Berry and dated 1978 (my dads), having a look thru it and i like the look of the Spiced Banana wine!!
Has anyone tried this??
3lb bananas.
1 oz cloves.
1 oz ginger.
31/2 lbs sugar.
1/2 oz citric acid (3 lemons, no pith).
11/2 pints strong tea (tbs of grape tannin).
6 pints water.
yeast and nutrient.
Normal thing of adding it all together and leaving it for 10 days, then straining it into a demijohn.
One question,, the amount of cloves,, would this seem right?? or might they be a bit overpowering??
Any thoughts on this would be much apprecated..
Thanks..
