Ingredients

3 lbs. (1.4 kg) Calrose rice (or similar)

1 gal. (3.8 L) pasteurized apple juice (12–13 °Brix /1.047-1.051 SG, which is typically bottle strength)

Chill to 80 °F (27 °C) and transfer to a carboy. Add the apple juice and mix to combine. Sprinkle yeast on top and close the vessel with an airlock. Ferment until completion then package.
