If For an apple wine - use Tate and Lyle sugar (not Silver spoon) make up to 11% with hydrometer (or Refractometer) Ferment as wine. Alternatively use a bit of white grape base form a cheap kit.

What is the difference in the 2 sugars mentioned? I thought that sugar was sugar? Confused.com

[lockwood1956]

Well

one is processed from sugar cane, the other is precessed from sugar beet. It is thought by some, that there is a rooty taste to the beet sugar

Tate and Lyle is the one to stick with - some supermarkets ALDI and LIDL especially will not always state what is in the bag.

[Northern Lass]

So it should state on the bag if it is made from sugar cane or sugar beet? I can see I still have a lot to learn!!

[Cellar_Rat]

Tate & Lyle is defo cane
Silver spoon is defo beet
..anything else read the label.

Our local Lidl states cane sugar on their pack - Asda, Sainsbury's and Morrison's all seem to be "UK Local farmers" which is Beet, at least until global warming really kicks in!

Don't forget, Whitworths is also cane sugar. Plus the German/EU brand that I've seen in the local Lidl, is actually labelled as "cane sugar"......
