An online video demonstrating how to dye Easter eggs with red wine has become viral. 

The only thing: keep the wine in the pot, not in yourself!

🔻Here's how:

⚡️Pour any red wine into a pot with red eggs.

⚡️Bring to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes.

⚡️Then cool and put the pot with the eggs and wine into the fridge (not freezer!) for the night.

⚡️In the morning, place them on paper towels to dry.

⚡️The result is matte, shimmering Easter eggs with an unusual color.

🐣Happy Easter to all!
