    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.

      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 ;)

    My mother had a similar technique. She used a glass gallon jug, a pack of yeast, sugar, and two medium cans or one large can of Welch's grape juice, and a balloon. 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. Let it sit for two weeks in the pantry or on the table.

    I'm trying this recipe for a friend! I don't drink anymore, but I enjoy brewing. This is the simplest recipe I've used. Usually, I use cans of fruit or something, but it never turns out right. We got a bottle of grape juice for free, so I threw in all the ingredients, topped it with a coffee filter, rubber band, and the lid. I had to skim the top a few times, but now it's been over a week, and it smells incredibly good. I did have to add a sprinkle more yeast after a few days as it wasn't activating right, now its perfect. I'm going to give it a few more weeks, then I'm going to ask what they think of it! I will say this used to be a cheap way to make alcohol, but now the ingredients have gotten expensive. Get you some $0.99 yeast and get your juice from a foodbank or dollar store.

    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 :-)

    I've been making mead for around 8-9 years. I've gotten pretty good at it. One of the biggest things I learned was it can make the place you are fermenting it at to really smell like alcohol. Especially if a gallon blows up. Also the bread yeast used in this video can make some pretty strong smelling wine with a good to a bit strong alcohol taste. It's also given me some of the highest proof out of the different types of yeast. However you are pretty much trading taste for abv in my opinion compared to other yeast.

    My preferred juice is the gallon jug of apple juice from Kroger, I also used a mixture of bread yeast and champagne yeast, and I've just been using the barm at the bottom of each jug to start the next jug. It takes about 2 weeks to fully ferment, but I also don't add any extra sugar to it. I close the lid all the way and just vent it once a day after the first 3 days, and I've only ever had 1 jug explode out of the dozens I've made, because the way those gallon jugs are made, they're able to expand and handle a lot of pressure. It comes out slightly sweet, quite tart, and very effervescent, which I really like.

      @Angel Valdez After looking it up, I suppose barm isn't exactly the right term for it. I use what he calls the "yeast sludge" at the bottom of the bottle, after I decant the cider.
      If you do plan on replicating what I do, do not skimp on the yeast. The one time I had the jug blow up was when I tried putting a smaller amount of yeast in it at the start. Looked it up, apparently it causes the yeast to produce a lot of gasses quickly, rather than gradually. The upside of doing this is that yeast is free, so there's no reason to be stingy with it.

    Thanks for this. I planned to make this back in high school, but barely got around to it at 22. Made mine from boiling blueberries and cane sugar. I used a condom (not lubed) to replace an air lock. Looks silly but it's inexpensive. I used brewery yeast. Gonna wait about 3 more days to decant.

    I love the simple tutorial. I made my own juice from fresh strawberries as well, so when finished I’m hoping it has a relatively palpable flavour

    This has now become a new hobby of mine in less than a week. I’m actually distilling now and learning how to make cuts. I’m making it all from sugar wash and other juices and I’m very pleased with the results. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

      Wow!! You jumped right in. If you got into distilling, check out some of videos on making mashes like bourbon and scotch mash.

    My great aunt made her own wine similar to this for her fruit cakes during the holidays. She used a mason jar and topped it with a cloth and tied rubber bands around it, and she would ferment it for months. It was actually pretty tasty. The only difference was she would add the sugar once she was ready to use it.

      I am not sure what it is called but in Germany they make a variation of fruit cake in which the fruit ferments and the cake contains alcohol.
