Method:
1 - The night before beginning the wine, you need to make Raisin Juice. This will add lots of body and depth to the finished wine. To make the Raisin Juice, put the 250g of raisins into a heat proof bowl and pour on 1 pint of Boiling Water. Cover with clingfilm and leave to cool to room temperature naturally. The raisins will soak up the water and swell. When cool, mash with a potato masher (or roughly liquidise), re-cover and put to one side until needed later in the recipe.
2 - In a saucepan, put in the cocoa powder. Add the water a little at a time and mixing it in, then add a little more cold water and stir, until it begins to make a thick smooth paste that holds its shape.
3 – A little at a time, add the 2 pints of boiling water to the cocoa paste and stir until it makes a smooth fluid consistency.
4 - Put on the hob and bring to the boil. Stir regularly to avoid it catching on the bottom. It will start to become frothy and as soon as it does, remove it from the heat.
