I was only trying to be funny because there is not a lot of variety in wine itself. You could try blending wines, banana wine jelly, banana vinegar or may be a pickled ripe banana with wine.

I am a hobby beekeeper with friends that are mead makers. So I must suggest make a banana Melomel. Make the wine with honey and banana.
I have a standing offer to friends. I give you a gallon of honey. When it is ready, give me three bottles of mead. With honey at 50 dollars a gallon, any wine maker in this neighborhood will take me up on the offer.

I always wondered what wine made from jelly palm fruit would taste like! It’s a sweet but a little tart fruit! Excellent to make jelly! Also called a pinto palm!
Anyone ever hear of it being made?

I made some years ago, about early 90s (5 gal). It has an after taste that i didn't care for. ... BUT after a year, the taste went away and was a pleasant dry white wine. i have access to several 'jelly' palms but haven't made any more since. Best i remember, the berries contain a lot of sugar and i didn't have to add much, if any, additional sugar. ... I use a hydrometer and add sugar until I get a 14% content. This is usually about 10lb to 5 gal of 50/50 grape juice & water. Thus my wines are slightly dry.

Hi Slim-
Welcome aboard the Banana Express. :nanerwaveytrain:
If I had that many nanners to work with, I'd just make a nice banana mash and add some yeast. Put a little heat to it, run it through a thumper jug and get some good old fashioned panther piss, as we call it here in Appalachia.

We had them planted all over the Charlotte area, but two years in a row, we had a few nights where the temps dropped to single digits. All are now dead, and I cover four counties with my paper routes. All dead. It's a shame, as I was going to plant one to have a taste myself!
