Embracing the festive spirit, Christmas invites us to indulge in a spectrum of wines. Some demand weeks of patience, while others unveil their flavors in mere days. Enter the world of Lololikka wine, a delightful creation from the sour Indian coffee plum, flourishing in Kerala homes.
The recipe calls for 2 kg of Lololikka, 1 ½ kg of brown sugar, and a blend of cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, and star anise, creating a symphony of flavors. The process is a culinary dance – washing and drying the coffee plum, infusing water with spices, boiling until the hues meld, and finally, allowing the wine to ferment in glass bottles for five days.
As the aromatic concoction matures, its vibrant red hues beckon. After the short wait, a simple sieving transforms the brew into a long-lasting Christmas delight. “This Lololikka wine is a testament to the festive spirit – quick to make, yet rich in tradition,” says the creator, capturing the essence of a Christmas drink that marries speed with authenticity.
