Bayberry is a very seasonal fruit that can basically only be eaten in summer.
Moreover, bayberry is one of those precious fruits that “hurts when rubbed and breaks when knocked down”. It is inconvenient to transport and cannot be stored. Therefore, many friends who like the taste of bayberry have come up with other ways to preserve the sweet and sour taste of midsummer.
Taste, bayberry soaked wine is one of them.
So what are the benefits to the body of using fresh bayberry wine?
Still following the old rule of "telling the truth and not lying", first of all we have to admit that bayberry is just a kind of fruit. Although it tastes sweet and sour, there is nothing particularly magical about it.
Whether wine itself has any benefits to the human body depends on how it is understood. From a medical and scientific perspective, the impact of wine on people is more harmful than good.
No matter how much you like alcohol, you cannot avoid the objective fact that drinking is dependent or addictive. Regular medical institutions around the world advise against drinking.
So if you insist on using some clichés, such as "softening blood vessels" and "supplementing vitamin C", it doesn't make sense.
After all, oral food and drinks cannot have any direct effect on blood vessels, and vitamin C is a relatively insensitive nutrient. Even if the food is not exposed to high temperatures, vitamin C will be greatly reduced over time, so
It is also unrealistic to insist that a jar of bayberry soaked for months or even years can supplement vitamin C or the like.
However, human health is not just physical health. After all, psychological health (stress relief, etc.) is also very important, and almost everything has two sides, so bayberry wine also has some benefits: So how to make bayberry wine?

Thank you for your question. Bayberry is just a fruit at best.
Among fruits, bayberry has a unique taste than other fruits, so it is popular among people. In fact, the trace elements it contains are the same as other fruits.
Moreover, fruits like bayberry have no peel protection, so they will be invaded by pests and diseases if they are not sprayed with pesticides. If pesticides are applied, they will become unsafe fruits.
Therefore, fresh bayberries must be washed with water before they can be eaten directly. It is best to add a little salt when washing. First of all, the taste after washing is not as good as eating it directly.
Now, let’s talk about fresh bayberry wine.
If you use fresh bayberry to make wine, it is not considered fruit wine, it can only be counted as soaked wine.
Because bayberry wine is sour, sweet and refreshing, and can be consumed before meals to whet your appetite, bayberry wine is particularly popular among drinking enthusiasts.
However, bayberry wine tastes good and has strong staying power, so drinkers must not be greedy.
Before making bayberry wine, we prepare a large, well-sealed glass bottle, clean it, dry it and set it aside.
When picking or buying bayberries, they must be fresh and have a certain amount without dew.
It is best not to use too mature bayberries for making wine.
When preparing wine, we must use puree grain wine, such as sorghum wine or corn wine.
The alcohol content is above 50 degrees.
Then we put the selected fresh bayberries in a glass bottle that has been dried in advance. The bayberries should be two-thirds of the wine bottle.
We poured the grain wine we bought into a wine bottle filled with fresh bayberry. The bayberry taste is originally sweet and sour. When soaked in wine, the taste will be neutralized. If you like a stronger sweetness, you can add it.
Appropriate amount of rock sugar.
Finally, we seal the lid and wait half a month before drinking!
It should be noted that if it is used for making wine, the bayberries you buy or pick yourself must not be washed.
Even if we want to clean it, we still have to let it drain away the water.
For safety reasons, it is best to pick wild and uncontaminated bayberries yourself!
However, it cannot be said that bayberry wine has no other merits. At least when we drink it in summer, it can prevent heat stroke, and it can also produce fluid, quench thirst, regulate the five internal organs, and cleanse the stomach!
Yangmei wine must be brewed from wild bayberries in the mountains and forests (see picture) and authentic grains. Drinking it is good for the body.
In July and August last year, I went to Aziying, about 40 kilometers away from the provincial capital Kunming, to pick up wild mushrooms. Many acquaintances who like to drink wine asked me to help them pick wild bayberries from the mountains there and use them to make wine.
I said there are bayberries waiting to be picked everywhere in the community, so why bother looking far away?
They replied that it would be possible to use artificially grown bayberry to make wine, but wild bayberry should be used to make wine, which has a natural fragrance!
Indeed, there are many wild bayberries in the mountains of my hometown.
When I was a child, I often picked it in the rain. It was sour when I first ate it, but after a while it had a sweet aftertaste.
