Although the recipe which advocates filling a marrow with brown sugar to make

Usually the result is far too sweet. You will find this recipe for Marrow Wine far more
successful:

if you wish a rum colour) 2 oranges
Yeast and nutrient 1 gallon water

1 gallon water 1 lemon
2 ¾ lb. sugar

that the skins do not break or you will have difficulty in clearing the wine.
