Just finished this mojito wine and it's now in the clearing stage. Just wanted to post the recipe because it tastes amazing!
Recipe
4 limes, cut in half and juiced. All added to fermenter
10 Tesco own peppermint tea bags
1kg of sugar
4 black tea bags for tannin
1 TSP citric acid
1 TSP Wilko nutrient
Half sachet EC 1118
Fermented dry to 0.995 in just 4 days at 25 degrees Celsius.
It smells amazing! Strong lime and mint aroma.
Just added finnings A and B and should be clear for a taste test in a day or two.
Fermentation complete 4 days later
Stabilized and degassed. I didn't bother to rack off as I always double dose my finnings anyway and I'm not in a rush for it to clear.
