Ginger Wine Recipe

Especially for @Fat Controller

I cant remember where this was asked for. If its in the wrong place, feel free to move it. As can be seen from the measures, its an old recipe.

Ingredients:

1/2oz essence ginger.
1/2oz essence capsicum.
1/4oz tartaric acid.
20 drops essence lemon.
1oz burnt sugar.
3 1/2lb. granulated sugar.
9 pints water.
Yeast and nutrient.

Method:

Buy the first five ingredients ready made up from your chemist, but if you are using the yeast nutrient omit the tartaric acid from it as it is already in the recipe.

Put sugar in bowl and add boiling water, stir to dissolve sugar, then stir in other ingredients except yeast and nutrient.

Stir frequently till tepid, strain into fermenting bottles, add yeast and nutrient, agitate, fit traps.
