In addition to the foody bits there will be some of my beers in there as usual. This year howver I want to include something pink for the WAGS!
The rules of play are - it must be between 4% and 12% alcohol, be pink, be fairly cheap and easy to make. Preferably looking something like these???
So I have come up with three options for fizzy pink alcohol to fill the bottles with:
Option One: A 4% ABV raspberry alcopop. I would use some of the polish raspberry syrup and sugar as per the usual way. Heavily carbonated. How dry would this be? Is it ncie to drink? I could add some blitzed raspberry for a more homemade look.
Option Two: A 10% rose kit wine. Not cheap and not that homemade.
Option Three: A 10%-12% raspberry champagne. Thinking about using white grape concentrate as you would for wine making, adding a bottle of the polish syrup and then carbing heavily?
Any feedback or suggestions of something completely different?
I know my way around beer making but have only made one batch of red wine before and that was from actual grapes.
I have demi johns, racking bits etc. Where is the cheapest place to buy the grape concentrates? Any links to good wine supply websites?
