    This is a method that is literally over 100 years old. My grandparents grew up during prohibition in the 1920s. The grape juice at the grocery store had a label on it that said "Warning: Do not add yeast and leave in a dark place, or it will ferment". Of course, the yeast and the sugar would always be strategically placed on the shelf right next to the grape juice.

      I heard some stores would even tape yeast packets on juice containers as an add-on sale.

Don’t drink too much of it or else u will get sick and have a nasty hangover at best. At worse, you could have a trip to the ER. Make sure you drink responsibly. It’s easy to check alcohol % to your weight and calculate how much of it will do you in. Set boundaries, don’t try crossing them right away, and do not drive.

She made enough juice for a half gallon. Added 1/2 the packet of yeast, a cup of sugar, and toped off the jug with a balloon. This was so the mixture could breathe.

    I was able to fill three bottles. The first 2, which were refrigerated, tasted more like a sparkling juice,although it was nice. The 3rd, which was unrefrigerated, and left to ferment some more.

      Well if that wasnt intended; if you immediately refrigerated your 2 bottles with the yeast inside, the yeast is basically gonna go dormant and put the fermentation process on hold, so it just didn't have any time to produce any alcohol. Hence why the 2 month one was rather strong ;)

    Back in the 80's I worked on many exploration oil rigs in the Bering Sea of Alaska. It was a very restricted environment and of course alcohol free for many reasons.
    Working in the "hospitality" arm of the business (feeding and housing the workers), we became absolute Masters of Pruno and ad to get very creative in explaining the odd over-consumption of natural fruit juices.
    One thing for sure, the fermenting of this elixir created a very distinct odor and was very hard to disguise in a closed environment... but we managed. We did, however, experience a couple of "accidents" from insufficient venting that resulted in explosions that left evidence all over the walls and ceilings of the brewmaster closet. Good thing this all occured prior to "CSI-Miami" and the prolific use of luminol :-)

My abba literally made this one handed when the stroke took out half of his body so when he says it’s easy trust me it is a 75 year old or so made this literally sitting hospital bed one handed with only a little help from me.

    It's funny that this video just happened to come up in my recommendations because that's exactly what I'm drinking right now. I've been doing this for a while, learning a lot of lessons along the way; having a few explosions along the way.

      @@PlattR I made champagne once and stupidly shook the bottle,the cork hit the ceiling hard and dented it and red stains went all over the rug but were easy to clean off. I just guessed at making it, but it was drinkable .I just added lots of suger to grape juice and used bread yeast.Lots of fizz,explosive LOL!
