Here is my Margarita wine/ Limeade recipe:
6 pounds brown sugar
4 pounds white sugar
8 cups water
1/2 cup key west lime juice
Simmered this concoction for 30 minutes to dissolve the sugar
Yeast starter:
4 cups of water
2 packets Lalvin EC-1118 yeast
1/4 cup white sugar
4 tablespoons of the dissolved sugar mixture
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tsp. Yeast nutrient
1/2 tsp. Yeast energizer
Rest of the recipe:
5 - 16 ounce bottles of Nellie & Joes Key West Lime Juice
1 tsp. Tannin
3 tsp. Yeast nutrient
1 tsp. Yeast energizer
Water to make just over 6 gallons
Gravity: 1.080
Temp: 77 degrees F
I'll be adding the yeast starter sometime today
