Oenology ping.
Come on! You can't tell me that they weren't making Dandelion Wine since the dawn of time, even before they started growing fruit? That's one weed that had to be the first thing blanketing the planet.
I know my few acres have enough Dandelions to make cases of the stuff each spring, LOL!
I'll share my recipe if anyone's interested...
It may be hard to believe, but we have a wonderful winery here in the Black Hills of South Dakota. Prairie Berry Winery located in Hill City, SD. They have several international award winners and have been hand-crafting wines since 1876, using ingredients native to this area. They use a lot of choke cherries, rhubarb and wild plums. My favorite is their "Red Ass Rhubarb". Really great with poultry and pastas. My husband likes their "Pheasant Reserve". (He's a pheasant hunter....go figure.) It's a light red from grapes and chokecherries. Good with pizza!
I love being able to buy local wines when they are this good.
You can order from their website. www.prairieberry.com.
No, I do not work for them.
