A Couple of months after making this wine we popped open a bottle for a taste test. Watch how good Chocolate Wines tastes    • Tasting The Milk Chocolate Wine  


As you know, I like to make interesting wines. I’ve seen some posts on Instagram for adding chocolate to red wine to make a milk chocolate wine drink. But, that’s not really chocolate wine.

For a full list on ingredients, equipment and the method, then visit the Brewbitz How To Make Milk Chocolate Wine Recipe page https://www.brewbitz.com/pages/milkc...

There are a couple of recipes on the forums for chocolate wine and the comments usually associated with them say that they are slightly bitter but very fruity in flavour.

Now, I’m not too keen on dark chocolate, so I thought I would come up with a recipe for milk chocolate wine. And this is it. Milk chocolate wine!

The recipe is pretty easy I’ve also added some orange into my wine because I like chocolate oranges. But I know that’s not to everyone’s taste so if you don’t like orange chocolate then reduce the orange to a half or even drop it out altogether.

The wine Has a nice chocolate aroma with a hint of orange and the vanilla with the lactose really turns this into milk chocolate. Smooth, silky, slightly sweet, this is a rich decadent wine that takes a few months to mature.

Drink it slightly chilled, but not too cold, just like you would a red wine and then you will get all the rich chocolate aromas.

So in our video we show you how easy it is to make milk chocolate wine. It takes about six weeks from starting to bottling but it’s worth it. And with only an aging of about 3 to 6 months in the bottle this is a very quick wine to enjoy.

The method is slightly different than most other wines, but if you’ve seen our apple and blackcurrant crumble or our rhubarb and custard wine recipes and this is not that dissimilar.

Why not have a go at making this wine and let us know in the comments below how you get on and if you enjoyed it.

Cheers for now and happy brewing
