Plum Wine Recipe

Plum Wine Recipe

  • 2 pounds small red plums (the smaller, the better)
  • 2 cups sugar
  • One 750 ml bottle vodka or other clear flavorless spirit
  1. Combine 2 pounds small red plums (the smaller, the better) and 2 cups sugar in a large jar or crock and add one 750 ml bottle vodka or other clear flavorless spirit. Stir to dissolve sugar and tightly cover. Store in a cool, dark place at least 3 months before using. Plum wine should taste floral and almost Sherry-like, with notes of caramel and raisins.
  2. Plum wine can be made 1 year ahead. Chill.
