Parsley Wine

Now this might sound daft I know, but it has a great affect.

1 Lb of parsley tops (the frilly stuff at the end, not the stalk)
1 Orange
1 Lemon
1 Gallon of water
4 Lb Sugar
¼ oz yeast
Piece of root ginger (peeled) about 1 “ long.

The process:

Boil the parsley, orange, lemon and ginger in the 1 gallon of water until it is mushy.
Strain it through a cloth or very fine sieve and add the sugar.
Let it cool down and then add the yeast.

Leave this alone for 3 weeks and then strain again using a cloth or very fine sieve.

6 weeks later, strain it again and then bottle it.

Now, I have made it, I have tried it, and I have survived it.

Aunt Beryl gave this recipe to my mum and they both swore by it, they also swore a lot after they had a lot of it to drink too, ha ha ha.
