- Forage 3-4lb Rose Hips (hard work believe me) (Thanks to my best mate Cossi)
- 2lb sugar
- 1tsp yeast
- 1tsp yeast nutirent
- 1 litre red grape juice (They were sold out of white which I would have preferred)
- Boil the rose hips for a long time until they begin to soften
- Mash them
- Add the sugar
- Stir and allow to dissolve
- Once the must is well flavored with the Rose hip juice pour through a fine sieve to remove the flesh and seeds.
- Pour the filtered must into the Demi John
- Add the grape juice top up with cold water
- Wait until the liquid is lukewarm
- Add yeast and nutrient
- Pop the trap on and wait for 4 weeks for the fermentation to slow
- Rack off into a clean Demi John
- Wait another 4 weeks
- Bottle... wait... drink... enjoy!
