How to make Makgeolli (Korean Rice Wine/Liquor) - narrated

Make Makgeolli (the milky rice wine) at home in just 2 weeks! This perfectly smooth, tangy, zingy and slightly sweet wine is the perfect drink for Korean foods. I talk about all the little details that will help you make a successful brew every time. Have fun at home making this wonderful traditional Korean brew that has been made at home for hundreds of years!

In addition to the home brew having wonderfully complex flavors (just can't compare to store bought ones), this has tons of beneficial probiotics that will give you health benefits as well.
