INGREDIENTS
1⁄2
cup white raw rice
1⁄2
cup black raisins (with seeds)
1
kg sugar (I hav used Brown Sugar)
1
teaspoon instant yeast
2
tablespoons lemon juice
2
liters water (boiled and cooled)
DIRECTIONS
Wash and rinse rice and black raisins and keep it aside.
Take a clean big ceramic jar or a glass jar. Add in all ingredients, rice, raisins, sugar followed by water. Stir it well with a wooden ladle.
Next add in yeast and lemon juice and mix well.
Cover the jar with its lid.
Everyday stir it well for 2 minutes in morning and evening.
Do it for the next eighteen days.
On the 19th day open the jar and filter it (you can use a muslin cloth, I didn’t use) to a clean big bowl.
Wash the jar and allow it for pat drying.
Transfer the filtered content to the jar back and close the lid. Keep it for another week.
You can see the colour changing from the next day onwards.
After the said period, transfer it to clean bottles and you can start using it.
The rice wine is ready to serve.
