RUINED Brew… Or Was It?! -Three Amigos Wine

This one started with the BEST intentions… and quickly turned into a full-blown brewing disaster. Today we’re making a Three Amigos wine using agave, tamarind, and mango — inspired by tropical flavors and a viewer suggestion. Sounds amazing, right? Well… things got weird. 😅 From chunky tamarind paste chaos to impossible racking, strange aromas (yes… those aromas), and a brew that nearly went down the drain — this batch tested EVERYTHING. But then… something unexpected happened. With a few adjustments (and a little stubbornness), we turned this problem child into a surprisingly delicious tropical wine 🍍🥭 This is a perfect example of why we always say: You learn more from failures than perfect brews. ⚠️ If you try this yourself: Use a brew bag… trust us. 🍷 Ingredients (1 Gallon Batch) ~2.25 lb (1.02 kg) Blue Agave: https://amzn.to/4sKlouk 14 oz (397 g) Tamarind Paste (or try whole pods instead): https://amzn.to/48f8Jap 3 lb (1.36 kg) Frozen Mango (added later) Water to 1 gallon (3.785 L) ½ tsp Pectic Enzyme: https://amzn.to/4bIme21 Yeast: Premier Blanc: https://amzn.to/456T3U7 Optional: Sweetener (sugar or monk fruit blend) _____________________________________ Tools We Use: Star San: https://amzn.to/3SXFoKg Our Favorite Pitcher: https://amzn.to/4dFWNzh Graduated 2 Gallon Brew Bucket with Airlock: https://amzn.to/3KuIeBA Baster: https://amzn.to/3DXs2c8 Hydrometer and Graduated Cylinder: https://amzn.to/4ow8gXz Spaddle: https://amzn.to/4bM43IQ Tilt Hydrometer: https://amzn.to/4njWPkv HOSS: https://amzn.to/48qUH6C Brew Bag: https://amzn.to/4nCuVk4 Auto Siphon: https://amzn.to/4cz8VRr Rumble Jar: https://amzn.to/4owOwCH We use the Amazon Affiliate Program for these links and we DO receive a small commission if you purchase using our links and all this comes at no additional cost to you! _____________________________________ Become a City Steading VIP - Click to learn more http://www.city-steading.com/vip-club _____________________________________ Want more City Steading?
