What is the difference between a dandelion wine recipe and a regular wine recipe?
In brief, a dandelion wine recipe calls for dandelion blossoms (the flower head) while a regular wine recipe will call for grapes. The Process for making dandelion wine is very similar to making grape wine. The dandelions are crushed and combined with water and sugar to create a “must.” This mixture is then fermented with yeast and turned into wine. Dandelion wine is generally made with a white wine or champagne yeast, and has a light, floral flavor.
What are some substitutes for dandelion wine?
Assuming you are asking for substitutes for dandelion wine the answer is many. Almost any fruit that can be made into a wine can be used as a dandelion wine substitute. Dandelion wine is traditionally a very sweet wine so you might want to try a wine made from grapes that are known for being sweet such as concord grapes. Other options include strawberry, raspberry, blueberry, and blackberry wines.
