Gentle Readers,
First off, let's be clear. In the world of Gew-raniums, I am Uncle Adolf. With a moderate amount of success, TWC has done as much as is humanly possible to annihilate the Geranium population here at Casa de las Rocas Grande. None-the-less, some have survived the genocide and to that end my kids made me a Father's Day bottle of Geranium Wine.
This is accomplished by collecting red, pink, orange, and purple Geranium flowers and shredding the petals into very small pieces which are then dropped into a large, water filled, stainless bowl that the dogs used to drink from. You then add some purple Society Garlic flowers to the mix. Soak the whole thing for a while until the water turns reddish. Then pour the resulting liquid into a used Smoking Loon bottle and shove in a cork.
Tah Da.
Almost poured some into my Father's Day wine glass at dinner. Little boogers were going to just silently sit by with a straight face and let me do it, too.
Pair this Geranium wine with a nice medium rare grilled steak.
As Ever,
Not Your Father's Commonsewer
