Once the fruit ripens you will be lucky to beat the birds to them unless you have a net over the tree.
We have 4 nice trees on our shoot but never manage to get more than a feed off them due to the birds, Elderflower is out now and that makes an interesting wine which is easy to make but the easiest wine I have made is made from cold tea, mixed with a lemon or two and some raisins. You will need 2 demijohns, 1 fermentation bucket, syphon tube, airlock, sterilising chemicals as all equipment has to be thoroughly sterilised, I use sodium metabisulphte for this and campden tablets for your finished wine. Wine also needs a constant temperature to ferment so you may also need a heater belt or you can just put the demijohn in the airing cupboard but put it in something as some wines tend to bubble over when fermenting.
A good homebrew shop will have kits readily available with nearly everything you need.
INGREDIENTS: TEA WINE RECIPE
4 pints / 1/2 gallon tea. When you make a pot of tea keep the tea which is leftover.
1 1/2 lbs / 680 grams sugar
1/2 lb / 225 gram chopped raisins
2 lemons
Wine yeast and nutrient
METHOD - WHAT TO DO
Put the warmed tea, sugar and lemon juice in a bucket and stir well. Add the chopped raisins and wine yeast and nutrient and cover and leave for five days. Strain into a demijohn and fit an airlock and leave to ferment.
When fermentation has ceased,(no more bubbles) rack the wine, (syphon) into a clean sterilised demijohn leaving all the sediment at the bottom of the fermenting demijohn and place in a cooler environment and leave for a further few months. Rack again if necessary and leave until the wine is clear and stable and then bottle.
This wine looks like whisky and has a lovely kick as it goes down.
Enjoy
