First you need to stock up on ingredients. Of course, you need dandelion flowers in the amount of 1 liter. Do not use other parts of this plant. They will only spoil the taste of the drink. Wine from dandelions, the recipe of which will be described in detail below, will require as many flowers as are closely placed in a liter jar. You will also need 1.5 kg of plain white sugar, 10 grams of raisins, a pair of lemons, 1 sprig of fresh mint (4 leaves). The list of products is finished. As you can see, it does not contain anything particularly exotic. And the main product (Dandelions) can be found in the season almost anywhere. However, it is not recommended to collect flowers along the roads. Plants actively absorb all harmful emissions.

Wine from dandelions, the recipe of which we are considering, is prepared very simply. First carefully scrape the flowers and separate the petals from the green parts of the plant. The resulting fluffy yellow mass is put in a large saucepan and pour cold water (4 liters). It is best to use boiled. Give dandelions a day under the closed lid.

After the time is up, boil half a liter of water and dissolve the sugar there. As a result, you should get a real syrup. We cook until ready.

Wine from dandelions (the recipe recommends insisting on plants for at least 24 hours) is prepared as follows. The contents of the pot are brought to a boil, removed from the plate and must be cooled. The resulting broth is filtered through a sieve or gauze, the petals are thrown out.

Next in the course are lemons. With them, you need to gently cut the zest (crust) in the form of a spiral. From the pulp you need to squeeze the juice. We add it to the almost finished wine. In the resulting decoction of dandelion petals, also pour in syrup, put mint and raisins. All mix. Wine from dandelions, the recipe of which we examined, is almost ready. It should be covered with gauze and leave to wander for a couple of days. After that, mint and lemon zest are extracted and thrown away. Pour the infusion into a large bottle. To know exactly when the fermentation process is complete, put a rubber glove on the neck with a small hole previously made in it. Once the wine is ready, we pour it into other bottles, separate the sediment and store it in a cool dark place for 3-6 months.
