Possible Blueberry Cider recipe

[bruce674]

I've got the following ingredients lying around and think i can make a decent blueberry cider from them, but not 100% sure what i need, and how much sugar would be required etc.

500g of Frozen fresh blueberries
4 cartons of apple juice from concentrate
Coopers super wine yeast or just a cider yeast
yeast nutrient
pectolase
potassium sorbate
campden tablets

The plan was to boil the blueberries with 1 litre of apple juice, add that to a FV with the rest of the apple juice and 1 litre of water.

Not really sure what the best yeast to use is? cider? Wine? And how much sugar i will need to add.

Once fermentation is done, add potassium sorbate, campden tablets? not entirely sure as this stage.

Any help much appreciated :

If you don't add any sugar you will get a cider of around 5.5% just from the sugar in the apple juice itself. Adding 100grams of sugar to a 5litre demijohn will normally increase the ABV by 1%. If you want to the cider fizzy don't add sorbate or campden tablet as this will kill the yeast which means so secondary fermentation can take place which is where the carbonation will come from.
