Early in my career I had a very limited income, so I sought cheap things to ferment. It turns out that pretty much anything containing sugar can be fermented. They don’t always ferment easily, but with patience they do.
In hindsight, I’m surprised how well these experiments turned out. While not quality wine by any stretch of the imagination, they proved surprisingly drinkable.
