BALLOON WINE



Balloon Wine image

This isn't fine wine, but its homemade, fun and easy. The results will be varied depending on the kind of fruit, sugar content, yeast's fermentation, temperature. This recipe uses juice concentrate, but you can make your own juice from grapes or plums. Don't use citrus.

Categories     Beverages

Time P1m11DT15m

Yield 1-2 bottles

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (2 1/2 ounce) package active dry yeast
4 cups sugar
1 (12 ounce) can frozen juice concentrate, without sweeteners
3 1/2 quarts cold water

Steps:

  • You will also need: 1 gallon glass jug (I guess you can use plastic, but I never did); 1 extra large latex balloon and a sturdy rubber band; 1-2 empty wine bottles or bottles of choice.
  • Combine the yeast, sugar and juice in a gallon jug.
  • Fill the jug the rest of the way with cold water.
  • Rinse out the balloon, and fit it over the opening of the jug.
  • Secure the balloon with a rubber band.
  • Place jug in a cool dark place.
  • Within a day you will notice the balloon starting to expand.
  • As the sugar turns to alcohol, the released gas will fill up the balloon.
  • When the balloon is deflated, the wine is ready to drink.
  • It takes about 6-weeks total.
  • Carefully pour wine into empty bottles without disturbing the sediment.
  • Discard the sediment.
  • Cork and tape the bottles closed.
  • The wine can be drunk now or aged, bottles on their side, for a year if you like.
  • But the younger it is, the yeastier it'll taste.

HOMEMADE WINE

You will need a sterile milk jug, a large latex balloon and a rubber band to complete the project. This Wine is a bit stronger than regular table wine. Its great for cooking as well as drinking.

ITALIAN BALLOON WINE



Italian Balloon Wine image

I made this my Senor year of high school and fermented it in the eves which could be accessed from my front closet on the 3rd floor. I had researched to find it in the library. It turned into "accidental" champaign. Several friends and I enjoyed it before school on the last day of school with strawberries, cherries, crackers and cheese. One friend had a little much...that's another story!!!! Back then the balloon on top was a nickel balloon. I suspect they are more now....you want a good heavy duty balloon. It will be sweet. I don't recommend eating fruit when you drink it!
