How to Make Brandied Strawberry Wine

  1. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine 1/4 cup honey, 1/4 cup blood orange juice, and 1/4 cup granulated sugar. Heat, stirring frequently, until the sugar dissolves completely.
  2. Add 1/4 cup brandy and simmer gently for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Add 1 pound fresh strawberries (hulled and halved) and continue to simmer for another 5 minutes, or until the strawberries are softened but still hold their shape.
  4. Remove from heat and let the strawberry mixture cool completely. This is crucial for a smooth final product. (Approximately 30-45 minutes)
  5. Once cool, transfer the strawberry mixture to a blender and puree until completely smooth (about 1 minute).
  6. Add 1 bottle (750ml) of chilled white wine (such as a sweeter Chardonnay) to the blender. Stir gently to combine.
  7. Pour into wine glasses filled with ice. Garnish each glass with a fresh strawberry and enjoy!
