I have a recipe I made last year for a wine with herbs and honey. Drinking the wine this year, I enjoyed it, although I thought the flavor could use improvement. I'm considering adding white raisins, as it is a white wine, to balance the acidity, and improve the flavor. With recipes I have followed from other winemakers, one wine- (pumpkin) called for one pound of raisins with 2-1/2 lbs. of sugar. My recipe for cranberry wine called for 2-1/2 lbs. of sugar, 1-1/2 lbs. of raisins. Since the recipe that I am using is a recipe I have invented, how can I know how many raisins to add?
