Features: The world is currently experiencing a health craze. Beyond traditional Chinese medicine, acupressure, and simple massage therapies, dietary culture is also shifting towards health. The increasing popularity of polyphenol-rich red wine demonstrates the positive role alcohol plays in this health trend. Fruits, flowers, herbs, and other ingredients are being used to make fruit wines and medicinal wines, which are evolving towards being both delicious and healthy. The anticipation of maturation during the brewing process and the joy of successful fermentation can only be truly experienced by those who participate in the making. Therefore, we encourage you to try making them yourself and challenge yourself. This book features 150 types of fruit wines and medicinal wines made from seasonal ingredients such as fruits, flowers, herbs, traditional Chinese medicines, tea leaves, and seeds. To help beginners master the techniques easily, the book includes numerous color photographs and illustrations, explaining everything from ingredient selection to brewing periods, procedures, drinking methods, and benefits in a clear and accessible way. Especially noteworthy is the detailed documentation of the maturation process (such as color changes in the wine) through color photographs taken at different stages, allowing you to understand it at a glance.
