What each ingredient does
- Grapes
- Supply the juice, natural sweetness and fruity flavor that make up the drink.
The step that matters
Bottle and seal while scalding hot. Filling and sealing while the juice is still very hot drives air out of the bottle and helps create a vacuum as it cools. Heat also lowers the number of microbes in the juice, so the seal should be made before it cools.
