Few know that dark blue tart thorn berries make a gorgeous homemade wine. I offer you a recipe for homemade turf wine and urge you not to be afraid to experiment in the kitchen.
1. We prepare sugar syrup. To do this, mix sugar and water in a saucepan, put it on fire and cook, periodically removing the white foam that appears on the surface. When the foam has stopped appearing - the syrup is ready, remove it from the heat and let it cool.

2. Along with the bones, rinse the thorn berries with cold water. Then put in a saucepan and pour boiling water. Boil over a small fire and, when the peel begins to burst, remove from the stove.

3. We put the cooled berries in a fermentation bottle. The fermentation bottle is a bottle with a hole in the lid into which a flexible tube (for example, from a dropper) is tightly inserted. The other end of the tube must be lowered into a container of water to allow carbon dioxide to escape from the fermentation bottle. The main thing is that the bottle is airtight. Fill the turn with a third of the cooled syrup and fermented yeast. We mix everything thoroughly, close our fermentation bottle for a week. After seven days, add the remaining syrup and cover again with a tube.

4. When bubbles stop appearing on the surface of berries (which means that carbon dioxide is no longer emitted) and the thorn drops to the bottom, filter our wine and pour it into another container.

5. We give the drink another week to wander, filter and bottle.
