I don't have an exact recipe, but I can tell you that regular table
sugar will NOT ferment well. I currently have 3 batches of sugar wine
going, trying to figure the best way to make it, and regular table
sugar does not work.

Table sugar is sucrose, which is a disaccharide, which yeast does not
eat. The yeast has to generate an enzyme to break it down into two
monosaccharide's, which has a slightly off flavor. You can use a candi
sugar, or a monosaccharide to do this, and it should come out better,
but you will still have a slightly cider-y flavor.
