I want to make plum wine for the first time, but I don't know where to buy plums, glacial sugar, brown sugar shochu, and preservation bottles. I would like to do it as cheaply as possible, but I wonder if I can get everything at Donki or Marukai ? Please let me know if you know of anyone who can help me. I'm not sure I can find the ice sugar in particular … If anyone knows just ice sugar, please let me know ! The liquor doesn't have to be brown sugar shochu, but if anyone knows which other liquor would make it taste better if soaked in it, I'd like to know that too. I prefer the sweeter ones !.

Recipe was made 2 years ago after watching Lee's Korean in Japan YouTube and I still use it.
Plums can be found at Palma Korean market, but not recently, so you may want to look on Amazon ? Matsu Take Ume on sale at Marukai. Made with white sugar. Each sugar is available at Marukai, Nijiya, and I have also seen them in China town, but they are not as clear as the Japanese raw sugar. I have seen the bottles at Donq before. It is also expensive and time consuming to boil the bottles and disinfect them by spraying with alcohol.

I don't know if they have it now, but there was a time when they sold green plums at Nijiya. I did not check for icesugar, but it seems to be available at Donki.

I also put on plum wine every two years.
Plums and glacial sugar, and every year I start selling it at Nijya in late May, but
the plums are expensive, so I buy it on Amazon.
(2 lbs. for $ 30th place )
I have also bought the glacial sugar on Amazon at Rock Suger.
The bottles are sold at Donki.
Shochu is made with vodka for me.
Most Japanese canned chu-hi is also vodka based,
I like it.

When the time comes (late May ~ June)
Last year there was a plum wine corner - prominently located in the vegetable corner - of Donkey's.
It was delicious. It can be delicious.
