| You can stuff the leaves with rice, meat, or anything, and you can use the prunings on the BBQ for smoke. You could make wine with the grapes. |

If you like the taste of them fresh, juice, jelly and fresh eating.
It's a muscadine so wine is a good possibility. Break, press, ferment, rack, ferment, bottle, age, for light.
Break, ferment, press, ferment, bottle, age, for dark. I suggest steering away fermentation that is done in 7 days. Even ale takes longer than that.
Now I've got the willies thinking about drinking something while it's actively fermenting. |

| In IL zone 5 you would never have heat that take to make it 7 days fermentation over. |

| Don't fear the yeast. A short fermentation will not yield as refined and complex a brew, but a wine that is a little rough around the edges is still a wine. |

You can make wine with minimal equipment.
Prisoners do it with ziplock bags, fruit juice and bread. Better results come with better equipment. |

| You could post it, there is a wine forum that dabbles in homebrewing and winemaking so Gardenweb shouldn't have a policy against it. |
