how to make dandelion wine

How much dandelion wine can you make with one dandelion?

Assuming you have a healthy dandelion, you can expect to get about 30-35ml of wine from one dandelion. To get this much wine, you will need to carefully extract the dandelion’s liquid using a syringe (or some other similar device).

For those not familiar with dandelion wine, it is a light-bodied wine that is made using the dandelion flower. It is said to have a slightly sweet taste with hints of citrus. Dandelion wine can be drunk on its own or used in cooking.

If you are interested in making dandelion wine, here is a basic recipe that you can use:

Ingredients:
-1 dandelion
-1/2 cup of sugar
-1/2 cup of water
-1/4 teaspoon of yeast

Directions:
1. Begin by picking a dandelion that has not been treated with any chemicals. If you are not sure whether or not the dandelion has been treated, it is best to err on the side of caution and find another dandelion.
2. Cut the dandelion into small pieces and place it in a blender. Add the sugar and water and blend until the dandelion pieces are broken down.
3. Pour the mixture into a clean, sterilized jar. Add the yeast, screw on the lid, and shake the jar to distribute the yeast.
4. Place the jar in a warm, dark place and allow it to ferment for 2-3 weeks.
5. After 2-3 weeks, strain the wine using a cheesecloth or coffee filter. Pour the wine into clean bottles and cork them.
6. Allow the wine to age for at least 6 months before drinking.

So, there you have it! With just one dandelion, you can make around 30-35ml of delicious dandelion wine.

How many dandelions are needed to make a gallon of dandelion wine?

To make a gallon of dandelion wine, you will need about fifty dandelions. The process is quite simple. Start by adding the dandelions to a pot of boiling water. Boil for about five minutes, then remove from heat and let cool. Once cooled, add the dandelions and water to a blender and blend until smooth. Pour the mixture into a cheesecloth-lined strainer and let it drain overnight. The next day, add the dandelion mixture, sugar, and yeast to a glass container. Let the mixture ferment for about four weeks. Once fermented, bottle the wine and enjoy!
