Every April and May every year, when green plums are on the market, I can’t help but buy five or six catties to soak green plum wine and taste them slowly in the coming year.
Green plum wine is sweet and sour, which can beautify the skin, promote body fluids and quench thirst. It is especially suitable for drinking in summer. For green plums, choose large fruits, thick flesh, and small nuclei.
Let me give you a reference to the time when the green plums went on the market:
Fujian green plum’s listing time, from late March to mid-April, Zhejiang green plum’s listing time is from the end of April to early May, Jiangsu green plum’s listing time from the end of April to early Guangdong green plum, from late March to mid-April"

Ingredients

5 catties Ome
5 catties Jiujiang Double Steamed Rice Wine
2.5 kg Yellow Rock Candy

What Should I Pay Attention to When Making Green Plum Wine?

1. Rub the green plum fruit with fine salt or shell powder to remove the tannic acid on the surface of the green plum. The tannic acid will give the wine an astringent taste. Then wash it again with clean water, and by the way use a toothpick to remove the stalk of the green plum.

2. Clean the glass jars with wine (why use wine? Because there should be no water in the process of soaking the wine, otherwise the soaking will deteriorate, and disinfect the bottle by the way) Of course, you can also wash it with water and wipe it dry. Wipe the bottle dry.

3. Put the green plum and yellow rock sugar layer by layer into a glass jar, and pour the Jiujiang double steamed rice wine. Rice wine is suitable for soaking fruit. This time I used the old brand of Jiujiang Double Steamed Guangdong Rice Wine, which is brewed at 29.5 degrees from pure grains. You can buy this rice wine in many stores. If you want to make it easier and easier, you can buy it online. Tmall search: Yuanhang Jiujiang flagship store, buy it yourself~

4. Seal the lid and put it in a cool place, shake the bottle every other week in the previous month, and then wait for a year so that you can taste the delicious green plum wine.

Tips:
1. Dry the water in the utensils during the brewing process, otherwise the brewed wine will deteriorate and it will be wasted.
2. Rice wine is the most suitable base wine. Maotai-flavored wine and strong-flavored wine will cover the fruity flavor of green plum.
3. The base alcohol content should not be too high or too low. Too high will damage the flavor of the fruit, and too low will not allow the nutrient composition of the fruit to be analyzed. It is recommended to use a degree of 25-32.
