We figured that if convicts in prison could do it, so could we. Let me just say, it was the nastiest tasting liquid I've ever consumed in my life. We let the grapes and plums sit in the sun and mold for a few weeks and then we scraped the yucky mold off and waited and waited ... and waited, for it to ferment. We kept adding sugar. I think we were supposed to let it ferment and age for like many months or even a year, but we were seniors in high school, young, stupid and in a hurry to drink our wine so we rushed it and in tasted like dog crap. We drank it after a month I think, we might have waited two months. It was seriously horrible. It did have that alcohol smell and taste and we did catch a buzz. It was definitely wine, but it was really bad wine.Melissa Sugarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16268333458796847721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-556528429571644528.post-62805311468079591652016-04-06T13:58:08.601-04:002016-04-06T13:58:08.601-04:00I love a drop of elderberry liquor (don't know...I love a drop of elderberry liquor (don't know how to spell it) with sparkling wine.
