Carrot Wine

This is another tasty wine which involves a bit more effort than the commonly made wines. Here fermentation takes place in two stages- one with the carrot pieces and one after it is taken out. But the taste is worth the efforts.

Ingredients

1.5 kg carrots
1 kg sugar
4 tablespoon Lemon Juice
Yeast

Method

Boil the carrots and simmer until soft and strain on to the sugar. Stir in the lemon juice. When the liquid is lukewarm, add the yeast. Cover and leave for 7days, stirring twice daily if possible.
Using a fine sieve strain the liquid into a bottle and store in a warm place and allow the fermentation to work itself out(7 days).When fermentation has ceased, rack the wine into a clean jar and place in a cooler.
