Wanna taste some British wine? Check this - Honeysuckle Flower Wine, it is a classic British floral wine created from honeysuckle flowers. Given below is the traditional recipe for creating this beautiful wine:

Ingredients

1.2l lightly-packed honeysuckle blossoms
1.35kg sugar
1 tsp tannin
4.5l water
225g raisins
2 oranges, sliced into rings
2 tsp acid blend
1 tbsp pectic enzyme
1 packet Montrachet wine yeast

Method

Pour water and sugar in a pan and boil it till the sugar dissolves, put it aside and allow it to cool completely.

Next, wash the Honeysuckle Flower and place it in the fermenting bucket.

Now, put the sugar syrup and stir in all the other ingredients, except yeast.

Stir the mixture thoroughly and allow another 12 hours to suffuse before addition of activated wine yeast.

Now cover the fermentation bucket, stirring it each morning for five days.

After five days, strain it meticulously and transfer the liquid to a sterilized demijohn fitted with airlock.

In about another six weeks, the fermentation will slow down and now its time to rack the liquid to a secondary fermentation chamber with water and fitting an airlock.

Allow it to ferment for around ninety days in a cool place and then rack into a fresh demijohn.

Now top it with water and rack twice more till the liquid becomes clear.

Cork it and lay down for around six months to mature before drinking.

If you wanna enjoy your drink better then cool it in a commercial refrigerator which will chill it to perfection.
