Bubble bayberry wine.
To make bayberry wine, you must first have a good container, usually a wide-mouth glass bottle. Depending on the number of bayberries you have, it’s enough to be able to hold the bayberries. Generally, farmers’ markets sell large glass bottles specially made for wine, and you can also buy them on Taobao. Families with particularly large quantities can also choose to use 20-pound wine jars, but no matter what kind of container, it needs to be able to be sealed.
There are no special requirements for the bayberries used to make wine. Ordinary families use the red bayberries that they can’t finish to make wine. If they taste particularly good, you can go out and buy good varieties. When purchasing, it is best to buy small, dark bayberry varieties. Wild ones are better. Large bayberries taste slightly less good when soaked.

What kind of wine is good for making bayberry wine?
For making bayberry wine, it is best to use light-flavor or rice-flavor liquor. Do not choose strong-flavor or sauce-flavor liquor. Because the aroma of white wine that is too strong will cover up the aroma of bayberry. In addition to Chinese liquor, you can choose Japanese or Korean sake, or brandy, gin, rum, or whiskey.
You can drink bayberry after soaking it for about half a month. Longer soaking will make the bayberry black in color. The bayberry will absorb too much alcohol and the taste of the wine will become lighter. If it is left for a long time, you can combine the bayberry and the bayberry. The wine is separated and stored later.
You can drink the brewed bayberry wine directly. It is more refreshing to drink after chilling on a hot day, or it is also good to add ice cubes, soda water, etc. to drink.
