So the Green Tea & Ginger wine is coming along just fine. On the 1st, yikes that's a whole week ago - sorry -, I moved the wine to secondary. Normally I would have taken out all the solids at this stage, but I only took the tea out. Can't explain it, just felt like leaving the sultanas and ginger and zest in. Sunday, some 5 days later, I took out the rest of the solids.
In between making it up as i went along we had dinner with mates. 3 bottles of wine came to the table. Orange & Elderflower, Blackberry & Elderberry and also Blueberry & Cranberry. They were drunk in that order and then having drunk 3 wines it was easy to get some cool feedback by asking which one worked.
Orange & Elderflower was a hit with one mate, and a close second best with the other
The Blackberry & Elderberry was a slight favourite with one and a clear 2nd best with the other.
As for me I liked the Blackberry & Elderberry best.
I got a bit lucky serving up the least favourite wine first then! Because it went down fine, and truth be told it is a perfectly good table wine. It was very pleasing that the "good stuff" was appreciated most tho.
