How to brew dragon fruit wine

Dragon fruit is a fruit with relatively high nutritional value. There are many types of dragon fruit, mainly divided into red-skinned, yellow-skinned and white-skinned dragon fruit. It is also common to use pitaya to make fruit wine, which has a relatively high nutritional value and has a good conditioning effect on the body, especially in promoting cardiovascular health. In addition, the alcohol content of pitaya wine is relatively low, and drinking it moderately is good for the body.

How to choose dragon fruit:

When you go to the market to buy dragon fruit, dragon fruit is divided into three categories: white dragon fruit has purple-red skin and white flesh, with small black seeds distributed in it, and its fresh food quality is average; red dragon fruit has red skin and red flesh, and its fresh food quality is better; yellow dragon fruit has yellow skin and white flesh, and its fresh food quality is the best. The redder the surface is, the better; the greener the surface is, the fresher it is. If the green part turns yellow, it means it is no longer fresh. The heavier the dragon fruit is, the juicier it is and the fuller the flesh is. Therefore, when buying dragon fruit, you should use a hand scale to weigh each dragon fruit. The heavier the better.

In addition to weight, you should also choose plump ones, not skinny ones. The fatter the apple, the more mature it is. It will be sweeter and less raw. The quality of dragon fruit wine brewed in this way will be better.

If you buy it to eat, whether the dragon fruit tastes good or not depends on the variety. The dragon fruit with red skin and red flesh is more delicious than the one with red skin and white flesh. The sugar content is over 15 degrees, and the taste is sweet and not greasy. The best quality dragon fruit should be large, plump, round and convex in the middle, with scale-like skin that turns outward. Also, choose one that is a little soft when pinched (not too soft, otherwise it will burst out with juice when cut). Such dragon fruit will be delicious and sweeter.
