How to make it

  • Remove as much of the green material from the flower heads as possible, and boil a gallon of water.
  • Pour the boiling water over the flowers, cover with cloth, and steep for two days. Do not exceed two days.
  • Add the zest from four oranges (no white pith) and boil for ten minutes.
  • Strain through a muslin cloth or bag onto a crock or plastic pail containing the sugar, stirring to dissolve.
  • When cool, add the juice of the oranges, the yeast and yeast nutrient. Pour into a carboy or some sort of airtight container, and allow to ferment completely.
  • Rack and bottle when the wine clears and repeat process until no more lees form for 60 days.
  • Allow it to age six months in the bottle before tasting, but a year’s time is ideal.
