Bayberry wine is mainly made of bayberry rock sugar and white wine. There is no strict ratio requirement for the three. There is less plum wine and more plum wine. You can use rock sugar or not. It can be according to your own taste.
The volume and weight values I gave are for reference only. Especially if you do it for the first time, you can know what it is. Figure 1 shows 3 catties of bayberry. The following reference material is to make 1 catty of bayberry. Proportional calculations are fine. "

500ml 56 Degrees Erguotou
180g Crystal Sugar
a little Salt

Bayberry Wine

1. Buy bayberry, soak in clear water in a basin, and add some salt when soaking. The purpose of adding salt is to separate out any small bugs. Then wash with clean water to make sure there is no salty taste. Put it on a shelf to dry in the shade, I put it in a ventilated kitchen, and let it dry all afternoon plus one night. If the amount is small, you can wipe it off with kitchen paper first to dry it faster. But it is best not to wash it directly with white wine in order to save the drying process. In this case, if there is a bug, it will not drip out.

2. A layer of bayberry and a layer of rock sugar. If the bottle is not big, it can be poured during the soaking process, first the bayberry and then the rock candy, and the effect is not big. Generally, a 1 liter bottle can hold 1 catty of bayberry + 2 taels of rock sugar, or 9 taels of bayberry + 4 taels of rock sugar.

3. Add wine and fill it up. A 500ml bottle of liquor is poured into a 1L bottle, which is just right. This time I made bayberry wine after weighing it, and found out that 500ml of white wine is not 1 catty, but 9 taels. Liquor above 45 degrees is fine. Even if it's 56 degrees, it won't be hot after soaking with bayberry.
