Alcohol is a drink that most people like. Although alcohol has certain side effects on the body, there is no problem as long as it is consumed in moderation, and it can also promote better health. There are many types of alcohol. In recent years, various foreign specialty alcoholic beverages have gradually entered people's lives. Among them, longan wine is a very distinctive alcohol. Let's take a look at how to brew longan wine?

① Adjusting the acidity and alkalinity: After longan is washed, shelled, pitted, pulped and filtered, the acidity and alkalinity of the filtrate are adjusted. The total sugar content of longan juice itself is about 20%, and the alcohol content formed by its own fermentation is about 10% (v/v). In order to increase the alcohol content, the total sugar content of the fermented mash is increased to 25% and 28% respectively. In addition, the acid content of the fermented mash was adjusted to 0.3%, the pH was 3.0-3.3, and 0.15% sodium metabisulfite was added to inhibit the growth of miscellaneous bacteria.

② Pasteurization: Use 70℃ pasteurization, which can kill bacteria and make the fermentation liquid easier to clarify without affecting the inherent flavor of longan wine.

③ The amount of inoculated yeast is 0.2%. First, activate the highly active dry yeast for wine with 5% sucrose solution and 10% fruit juice at 37-40℃ for 1 hour, pour it into the fermentation mash and stir well.

④The main fermentation temperature was 30℃, 20℃ and 10℃ respectively to study the quality of longan wine at different temperatures.

⑤ After the main fermentation is completed , the lees are separated and transferred to tanks for post-fermentation.

⑥ Add 60° rice wine to adjust the alcohol content to 18°, 20° and 25°.

⑦ Aging: The wine is aged in a sealed container at room temperature for 3-6 months and then bottled after aging and clarification.
