    This is possibly one of the easiest wines to make.

    2lb or 1kg of Edlerberries

    1 Lemon, sliced

    3lb Sugar

    Yeast

     

    Put the Edlderberries, Lemon and Sugar into a bucket. Add 1 gallon of boiling water. Mash up the fruit.

    When cooled (below 25C) add the yeast.

    After about a week, strain the fruit and put the liquor into a demijohn, fit an airlock and leave to ferment.
