Dandelion Wine: Anyone have a tried & true recipe?

[armybrat]

I'm definitely not a southerner but have made dandelion wine. I used a recipe from a pioneer cookbook....gathered a gallon jar full of dandelion heads & have to say that took a long time.....when you don't want dandelions they are everywhere! To make a long story short.....the wine was gross!I prefer a very dry wine & the dandelion wine was anything but dry.

I am so LOLOL at yawl!! In my drinking days, I preferred Margaritas, Bailey's Irish Creme and Amber Bock beer. it was delicious!!

I have read Tristan and Isolde and just sobbed at the ending. I am not going anywhere near the movie. Has anybody read Where the Red Fern Grows? It is a beautiful story, just beautiful. I reread it every so often, but I stop cold at the last chapter, I just can't handle it.

Maryjane.....when I was a kid, we lived in New Brunswick for a few years. That was when I was introduced to fiddleheads. We loved them!

What are fiddle heads ? What do they taste like?

I never had but I have heard of it. How do you decide which ones are good? Must have to be picked in the Spring. I told you guys that the dandelion wine was like cough medicine. Ya'll are going to listen to me one day!!! lol
