Wondering how to make Sima? Cocktail Builder will help!

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 dl of brown sugar (alt: sugar)
  • 1 1/2 dl of beer
  • 1 tbsp of sugar
  • 2 tsp of yeast
  • 1 of lemon
  • 5 of liters water (alt: watermelon juice)
  • 5-6 of Raisins

    • Instructions

    Boil water, sugars, beer and the yellow part of the lemon's peel. Let the mixture cool down. Peel the white part of the lemon's peel carefully and cut the fruit part of the lemon into small pieces, then add to sima.

    Dissolve the yeast in a bit of the sima and add to sima. Put 5-6 raisins and 1 tablespoon sugar in every bottle you're making.

    Pour the sima into the bottles and close the bottles carefully. Leave sima in a cold place for a couple of days.

    Sima is ready when the raisins float. It will keep well in a cold place for 1-2 weeks.
