Directions
2 cases currants, 30 lbs. sugar. Crush currants and let stand 24 hours. There should be 3| gallons of juice. Then strain through double cheese cloth. After the juice is squeezed out of the currants cover the pulp with water, let cook 20 minutes, strain through cheese cloth. Take liquid from pulp and place on fire, add sugar, leave on fire until sugar is melted. Take from fire, let cool. Then add the melted sugar to the juice and place all in a cask, and fill it with soft water. Keep the cask full so the sediments will run out. Add water every two or three hours for a week or so. Then set away for a month and fill up cask every day or so. Afterwards draw off wine in a clean cask, as the wine is better standing in wood. Bottle it if you desire.
