		The art of making dandelion wine, celebrated in the 1957 Ray Bradbury novel Dandelion Wine, is alive and well wherever the bright yellow perennial weeds are found, though the practice appears to be limited to home brewers who mix up the wine in the kitchen.

		Wine is usually associated with grapes, but it can be made from almost any fruit with sugar that can be consumed by yeast, and Vermont vintners bottle and sell wines made from raspberries, apples, blueberries and other fruits.

	Dandelion Wine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dandelion Wine is a 1957 semi-autobiographical novel by Ray Bradbury, taking place in the summer of 1928 in the fictional town of Green Town, Illinois — a pseudonym for Bradbury's childhood home of Waukegan, Illinois.
		In the story, dandelion wine, as made by the protagonist's grandfather, serves as a metaphor for packing all of the joys of summer into a single bottle.
		Dandelion Wine has been described as the first of Bradbury's nostalgic "autobiographical fantasies," in which he recreates the childhood memories of his hometown, Waukegan, in the form of a lyrical work, with realistic plots and settings touched with fantasy to represent the magic and wonders of childhood.

		The taste of dandelions is strong, and the wine definitely needs to improve to be of the same quality as our last batch.
		Of course, it's well known that wines tend to taste awful until they've properly matured, so that the drink is acceptable at the moment is probably a good sign.
		However the wine has continued to improve, and now has the texture of a white wine with interesting overtones.

		Although it's only July 4th at the time of this writing, I can't help but think of the Doors' refrain, "Summer's almost gone." Maybe it's because I just finished rererereading Ray Bradbury's poignant and wise Dandelion Wine, a book that was a summertime rite of my adolescence.
		But as much as Dandelion Wine is a meditation on mortality, it is equally a celebration of life.
		While Dandelion Wine is both a heartbreaking and heartwarming evocation of a bygone era, above all it is about embracing the moment, letting go of the past, and forgetting the future.
