Ginger Wine

This evening, I started some ginger wine. I found a recipe which I adapted for my own ingredients on hand, and doubled up as I want to make two gallons – one that is sweet and one gallon of dry.

It took me about an hour all together to chop up fresh ginger root, simmer it with raisins, sanitize my equipment, and get all the ingredients all mixed up. I likely could have spent less time but my brother called and chatted with me for a bit while I was in the middle of it all.

I’m very interested in how this will turn out. Ginger by itself has health benefits apparently – will the wine retain those? As well, I used demerara sugar instead of white sugar. This is something new for me.

If you are interested in the recipe, it’s right here!
