"BOOSTING" GUIDE
If you're a fan of the Island Mist Series kits but like your wines a little bit stronger, consider "bumping" them with 1 pound of corn sugar and 1 liter of grape concentrate. The boosting of an Island Mist series kit is easy and brings the alcohol content to approx 9.5-10%. Simply adding corn sugar alone will boost the alcohol of your kit without adding body or mouthfeel to support this increase. Doing this will leave your wine tasting "hot" and unbalanced. The addition of white or red grape concentrate leaves your wine with more balance and produces a more enjoyable end product. Both the 1 lb corn sugar and 1 liter of grape concentrate should be mixed in stage 1 after adding your main juice pack and before topping up to the 6 gallon mark with water.
Aging Guidelines for This Wine Kit
Recommended aging: little or none once fermentation, clearing, and stabilization are complete. A resting period of approximately 2 to 4 weeks after bottling is a useful starting point for sampling. This style is intended for fresh fruit enjoyment. Extended aging can gradually reduce its vibrant fruit flavors and aromas, so enjoy it once it tastes settled and balanced.
Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 20 reviews.
Reviews
Proven winner!
"This is a proven winner with family and friends. I buy the 1 liter red juice concentrate but only use half plus I add 5 cups of sugar to up my specific gravity to 1.074 giving me a 11% alcohol. Semi sweet to sweet and flavorful. I have used my recipe about 9-10 times now with awesome results. Same recipe for the Island Mist black raspberry, black berry, black cherry and wild berry."

Black Cherry is Very Merry
"This wine is very sweet and has a super strong Black Cherry flavor. The ladies in my family love it. I'm more of a Cab drinker, but I love it too, especially on a family game night. I made it during the pandemic and bumped it up with a pound of sugar and a liter of juice to enhance the experience. When I make it again, I'll probably hold back 1/4 of the flavor packet to cut back on the sweetness just a bit. I highly recommend this kit."
