Preserving plum wine
Plum wine, also known as umeshu, is a type of alcoholic beverage made from plums. It is popular in China, Japan, and Korea. Plum wine is usually made with Japanese ume plums, which are small and sour. The plums are soaked in alcohol, and then sugar is added to sweeten the drink. Plum wine has a slightly fruity, sour taste.
Plum wine can be made at home, or it can be bought at a store. It is typically around 10-15% alcohol by volume.
Plum wine is traditionally drunk neat, or on the rocks. It can also be used in cocktails.
Plum wine can be stored for up to two years. After opening, it should be consumed within six months..Site link
