Hey busygal

In all the excitement I forgot to say in my previous post:
a) try and use a champagne type yeast, as this will result in a less and
easier sediment to get rid of from the bottle afterwards.
b) you can use any wine recipe for sparkling wine but favourites are fruits
such as apple, pear, rhubarb - grapes, of course - and even mead. You may
like to use a small bunch of elderflowers with some of these - especially
apple.
