I included garden wine in the cocktail portion of my most recent creative day retreat at my cozy cottage {along with dark chocolate covered strawberries, apples, and almond butter of course}, and was surprised by how delighted the women were with the idea. It's a total sensory experience.
The concept is simple, but lovely - add herbs to wine.

I grabbed herbs from my garden - sage, rosemary, lemon balm, purple basil, and lemon verbena. But you could also try lavender, roses, calendula, or thyme.
Add the herbs to the wine {I find that common garden herbs marry well with a crisp, white wine}, either in the wine bottle or in a separate bottle (like these beautiful swing-tops). Reseal the bottle and let it sit a few days before serving chilled.
Haven’t seen anything else you’ve published but I enjoyed the video expressing your mission statement~ 🙂
Hi…..
I am feeling very happy to see all about wine
I am wondering if it would work equally well with a non-alcoholic version, have you tried something of the sort?
Well you could do it in water and it would become a sun tea 🙂 But do you mean non-alcoholic wine?
Becca, I just now discovered you and I saw your herbal wines. That’s such a great idea! We’re off to a very good start. Thanks!
Looking thru Pinterest and found this beautiful pic!
Exquisite!
I can imagine how truly delicious it must be! What kind of white wine? Pinot Grigio, Soave, Sauvignon Blanc? Do tell! Thank you!
I believe it was a sauvignon blanc.
Thank you for your response! Definitely will try it!
Thank you again!
Becca, will dry herbs/flowers work in this recipe or only fresh ones? Thanks 🙂
Dry would work but it would need a lot longer to infuse. I highly recommend fresh plant!
Thank you, Becca 🙂
I feel really stupid asking this. But I am intrigued with this recipe but since it has wine in it is this something you drink once it’s marinated? Or is this a salad dressing. Again I apologize for the stupid question.
Not a stupid question, Kim. Yes this is wine you drink.
Becca your wine and fresh herbs are also very good with cooking chicken and fish, just to let you know.
Hello! How long would this wine last? I have a huge bush i need to use and im trying to find ideas that last for ages…
What type of wine do you use to infuse thes.. I didn’t see anything
