Our lilac tree is just coming into bloom and it struck me this morning that the best way to preserve the flowers would be to make a wine from them. Hoping to harvest a gallon pail of blossoms... But as to sugar... Has anyone made lilac wine before? If I wanted to make this a mead, would a varietal honey be better or a basic clover or wild flower honey? Indeed would a mead hide the flavors and so should I go for common or garden sugar? Thoughts? Thanks
all lilacs are edible, aren't they?
