We are making the Korean rice wine, makgeolli. It’s a milky white alcohol with a bit of fizz.

It’s fairly easy to make. You need sweet rice, water, regular yeast, and nuruk.

I bought all of the ingredients on Amazon using gift cards I earned using the Drop app.

You wash the rice, steam it, and then spread it out to cool. Then mix the yeast and nuruk with water. Toss it all in a jar and stir it daily. Should be ready in about 9 days.
