Hello fellow brewers! Today we are going to make a Passion Fruit Wine. Inspired by the Jamaican Passion Breezer, we decided to create a slightly stronger but sweeter and more flavourful variant using the MOB Baggie. And to be able to make it all year round, we decided to use Passion Fruit Concentrate. You can use any passion fruit concentrate for this recipe, but the higher the quality, the tastier your wine will be. Cheers to that and lets head on to the recipe!

FUN FACT Passion fruit is one fruit where the seeds are eaten, and the skin is discarded.

Ingredients and Equipment

1. 300ml of Passion Fruit Concentrate (any brand works)

2. 300gm of sugar (powdered sugar dissolves faster)

3. 2.5 litres of drinking water

4. 1 MOB Baggie

5. 1 MOB Legendary Kit
   

Day 1: Preparation

1. Start with cleaning and sanitising the 3L fermenter jar, its lid, and the muslin cloth.

2. Add all the water to the jar

3. Now mix in 300ml of Passion Fruit Concentrate

4. Grind 300gm of sugar and add it to the mixture.

5. Stir it or cover the lid and give it a good shake to dissolve all the sugar.

6. Empty the contents on 1 MOB Baggie into the fermenter and mix it throughly.

7. Cover your fermenter jar with the muslin cloth with the help of the rubber band.

8. Store the fermenter jar in a cool place away from direct sunlight.

Day 2: Fermentation

1. Clean and sanitise he fermenter lid and airlock

2. After about 12-24 hours once you see bubbles in the fermenter, remove the muslin cloth and tightly close the lid of your fermenter.

3. Fill water in the airlock below the max level.

4. Attach the airlock to the fermenter through the grommet hole and making sure it is a secure fit.

5. For the next 3-4 days stir the wine in the fermenter jar by using a sanitised spoon or stirrer or by swirling the fermenter jar.
   

Day 6: Cold Crashing

1. Its been 5 days since your Passion fruit wine has been fermenting. Now its time to remove the airlock, empty the water out, clean and store it.

2. Cover the hole in the grommet with a sanitised rubber cork.

3. Carefully place your fermenter in your fridge.

Day 8: Bottling and Storage

1. It take 1-2 days for the wine to clear and for the yeast and other dissolved solids to settle down.

2. Once its done, you can proceed to bottle the cleared part of the wine using a cleaned and sanitised siphon, funnel, muslin cloth, bottles and bottle caps.

3. Store the bottled wines away from direct sunlight in a cool place.

4. Drink it chilled and keep refrigerated after opening.

PRO TIP You can add 1tsp of powdered sugar to make a sparkling passion fruit wine.
