If it has no flavor, that sounds like something that would be good if you want to make your own flavors. Maybe a chocolate jelly or something would be possible. Or coffee jelly. A spice jelly, as in pumpkin spice without the pumpkin. It sounds interesting. ---

Well our neighbour practised dandelion wine. DANDELION WINE! Got the taste, it was rich, sparkly, flowery and I could be fooled as it was mid range champagne. Bet she mowed hectare of this shit for litre. ---

Bet she mowed hectare of this shit for litre. You’d be surprised. For a liter of dandelion wine, you’d only need about a half to three-quarters liter of dandelion flowers. You get the fermentables not from the flowers, but from adding sugar, so you’re basically making a sugar water solution and flavoring it with dandelion petals and usually some other ingredients (citrus, ginger, raisins are not unusual.) ---
