dandelion wine
Fermented yard flowers
Dandelion wine is a homemade wine fermented from dandelion flower petals, sugar, and citrus, traditionally made in spring when dandelions bloom abundantly.
The resulting wine is light, golden, and mildly sweet.
The drink carries strong associations with rural traditions and nostalgia, famously evoked in Ray Bradbury's novel of the same name, where it symbolizes the bottled essence of summer days.
