From: lstead@access3.digex.net (Lew Stead) Subject: Re: may wine ? Date: 4 May 1994 23:21:24 GMT There's also something which we've always called "May Wine" which is made without fermenting anything. Get a good German white. Let a half a dozen strawberries (sliced) and a good handful of woodruff steep in it for an hour or so. Serve cool. Very good, the strawberry adds a fruity flavor and the woodruff adds sweetness. Wes Thu Hal & Good Walpurgis! Lew !--------------------------------------------------------------------------! !
