"The Last Supper Wine Was NOT What You Think Most people imagine Jesus drinking bold red wine at the Last Supperbut in 1st-century Judea wine looked and tasted very different. In this Short I recreate how wine was likely made preserved and served during Passover including the syrupy secret behind its surprising color. This is a taste of biblical history boiled down and brought back to life. Watch to see how the wine of Jesus day was actually madeand what it might have tasted like. #TheChosen #TheChosenTVSeries #LastSupper #BibleHistory #BiblicalCooking #HistoryOnAFork #Passover #AncientRecipes"
