Since I'm on a diabetic diet (low-carb), my interest is to try to ferment
some of the 'sugar' in the fruit, while keeping the fruit's natural taste
and texture. Adding alcohol is ok, as it's less of a problem than 'sugar'.

Any ideas on that? Can it be done by using wine or rum or such as a starter?
