Has anyone made blackberry and beetroot wine

[Lucylu]

Hi, I've picked some blackberries but it's only 1 1/2 lbs. I was wondering if anyone knows how to make blackberry and beetroot wine as I have some in the garden? Thanks 😀

I have made beetroot wine before, but I wouldn't really call it a wine more of an Aperitif. It's very earthy, and quite fragrant (due to the recipe I followed which included some spices). Even without the spice I don't know if the 2 ingredients (Beetroot & Blackberries) would work well together.
I'm not trying to dissuade you, but if you are simply thinking of this recipe as you are short of blackberries then I would say some other dark fruit might be a bit more complimentary i.e. Elderberries, blackcurrants, possibly even cherries spring to mind. If you just fancy giving it a go then keep us posted.

Hi!
I would pick more blackberries, make the wine and pickle the beetroot. :)
