A Citrus Winery In Florida!
Florida is famous for many things, mainly as one of the holiday hotspots of the United States. This state is home to the Theme Park city “Orlando”, and this is why it gets so many visitors. Florida receives more visitors a year than the whole of the United Kingdom and with so many attractions there is no wonder why. The largest theme park in the world is in Florida – Disney World, but there are more. Universal Studios and Disney World are the two biggest here, with at least four more large ones as well!
What else is there in a smaller market that brings people to Florida. Although Florida is best known for it’s theme parks, you can also go there to sample wine made from Oranges. These fruits are just as another; they have sugar in them and therefore the ability to produce alcohol.
The Spanish came over to America, and when they did they needed to the ability to grow wine away from Spain. The most commonly used fruit across the world to make wine is the grape (in various colours). The grapes just couldn’t survive in this world, the climate was a little harsh but they could have made it, if it wasn’t for the plain soil. This soil just didn’t have the minerals and vitamins that the Grape needed to survive. Unfortunately the grapes weren’t able to support themselves here. Hardier stuff was needed to keep order amongst soldiers and obviously to keep some taste flowing through the ranks.
The easiest and clearest option that they took was the Orange, a sturdy fruit that could be easily maintained. They can survive on a lot less than the grape can, and also have high sugar levels. There are orange grove wineries in Florida and are great for you to visit on your Florida holidays. USA holidays haven’t exactly blossomed because of the Orange wines, but they should be visited, maybe even if you are on a Fly Drive USA tour!
