Step 1

Put mamajuana kit ingredients into a bottle or jar, and then cover them with about 2 cups of cheap rum to “season” the bark to lessen the bitterness of the brew.

Step 2

Let the plain rum sit with the botanicals for at least a week, and then drain it off and add your 500ml. of dark rum. Then add the red wine, honey, and any optional flavors (I added 2 sticks of cinnamon & 1/4 cup of raisins). Cinnamon, clove, and allspice are the most traditional flavor additions.

Step 3

Once your brew has been steeping for a week, it's all ready to be filtered and used.

Step 4

Before consuming any of your mamajuana, run it through a damp coffee filter to remove any small bits of herb, spice, or bark. You can use a dry coffee filter, but it will absorb some of the mamajuana.

Step 5

(optional) Adding more red wine isn’t traditional, but it brings out some acidity, making it more smooth for sipping or taking shots of.
