Non-alcoholic red wine: As soon as the name birthday comes up, images of cake, lights, decorations and special drinks come to mind. On this day, sitting with family and friends and drinking something different and special is a different pleasure. People often associate red wine with Christmas, but because of the presence of alcohol in it, many people do not like to drink it. In such a situation, the options available to the guests are limited. If you also want the Christmas evening to be colorful, but without alcohol, a home-made red wine drink could be a great idea. This drink made from black grapes is quite similar to red wine in appearance, and is slightly sweet in taste and has a distinct aroma as well. The good thing is that you can easily make it in the clean kitchen of your home. From children to the elderly, everyone can enjoy it without any worries. Let us know the easy recipe for making a non-alcoholic drink like red wine, which will enhance your birthday party.
material
– Black grapes: 1 kilogram
-Sugar: 400-500 grams (depending on taste)
– Yeast: 5 grams (optional for flavor)
– Water: 1.5 to 2 liters
– Whole spices: cinnamon, cloves, cardamom (a small amount)
Preparation method
1. Preparing the grapes
First of all, separate the grapes from the stem. Wash well with clean water. Now in a large bowl, crush the grapes slightly with your hands or with a juicer, until the juice comes out. Do not separate the skin and seeds, as that is where the color and flavor come from.
2. Cook the juice
Place the crushed grapes on the gas and let it boil over low heat for 10-15 minutes. This will allow the grape juice to release properly and any natural fermentation will stop. Now turn off the gas and let the mixture cool.
3. Add sweetness and fragrance
When it cools, add the sugar and mix well. If you want a light, wine-like aroma, you can add yeast in a very small amount, but do not keep the mixture for too long. Tie all the spices in a cloth bundle and add until the aroma comes through but there is no bitterness.
4. Filter and keep
Now filter this entire mixture through a clean cloth or sieve. Fill the juice into a glass jar or bottle. Close the lid slightly and keep it in the refrigerator. The flavor will set well within 24 to 48 hours.
5. How to apply
While serving, serve cold. If you like, you can add some soda water on top or garnish with orange peel. This drink will look like red wine and will also have a special taste.
Things to keep in mind
– Do not keep this drink outside for a long time, rather store it only in the refrigerator.
-If you are preparing it for children, do not add yeast at all.
-Using fresh grapes improves the taste and color.
