This evening I found 100% pure pressed juice reduced in Morrisons from ����£1.39 to 9p. I bought 16x 1 litre bottles. I was happy to pay 9p just for the empty bottles as I needed some decent ones.

I am thinking of making wine with at least some of it but have not got any grape juice to mix it with. All the juices are the same, called 'Tropical Fruit' containing apples, clementines, pineapple, mango and passion fruit. I realise that the wisdom of the thread calls for this to be blended with grape juice. If I made wine with this alone though what would it taste like?

That juice sounds a perfect combination. I would use 2 litres per gallon to start but leave headroom for late addition. After initial fermentation (bubbling slows down) top up with 1/2 litre more of the same juice to just below neck of demijohn.

Good luck!

I am still learning lol
So how many litres off juice do you use for a demijohn
I've been doing 2 litres so far

 

[Chippy_Tea]

If its 100% juice I use a litre of each, if its less than 100% double up on the ones that are not 100%.
