Apply airlock (Click here for our pack of 3) add water to 'fill line', and leave in a dark and warm place (75-77 degree F) for three days. Cover with towel if necessary for darkness and/or keeping warm. Save the juice cap!
Use sweetness calculator (CLICK HERE to use our Free Drink Designer) to determine how much sugar to add and watermelon juice to remove.
Using the values from the sweetness calculator, pour out your juice, add sugar, seal the juice again, and shake to dissolved (it's okay if it all doesn't dissolve) .

After 3 days, move to fridge for 48 hours. Optional: remove the airlock and replace with the original cap, but *not* tightened onto the juice container. Instead, leave it loosely on top.
After 48+ hours in the fridge, your yeast will have fallen to the bottom of your container. Optionally, you can now carefully pour your wine off of the sediment into a secondary container for bottling. You may find that sediment will build up again, and your wine might need to be poured off ('racked') once more. NOTE: this sediment is completely safe to drink if accidentally consumed.
Enjoy! Your wine will continue to improve with age.
