Re: In regards to making mead

[yahoo]

You can use whatever honey is handy. I've had real good results with
raw honey I got from a local bee keeper. It was a little more
expensive than store bought, but well worth it for the experiment!
When making 1.5 liter batches, I only need 12 oz. of honey, and 4 oz.
of sugar anyway.

Basic recipe for Spiced Mead
Ingredient Unit amount

Honey Lbs 0.75
Sugar Lbs 0.33
Lemon juice lemons 0.75
Apple juice cup 0.75

+ about .5 tsp each ground cloves and cinnamon

add water to get your 2-liter bottle 3/4 of the way full.
Expect this to take 1-1/2 to 2 times as long as fruit wine to brew.
