I used
18 lbs of rhubarb
2 lbs of strawberries
10 lbs of sugar
1 tsp pectic enzyme
1 tsp yeast nutrient
sulphite as per the usual procedure
water to the 5 gallon mark
I chopped the rhubarb into small peices, discarding anything that I thought was too green or too woody, and placed it in the primary with the sugar. Next, I thinly sliced the strawberries and threw them in too. I boiled enough water to fill to the 5 gallon mark and did so. I let it sit overnight, and began the yeast starter to be put in the next day.
This is going to be a sparkling wine, so after it clarifies, I will follow the instructions that I found here.
