Mead Making
Mead is an ancient drink made from fermented honey. Many believe that mead was the first alcoholic beverage made by man. It has an interesting history; this is where the term "honeymoon" came from, for instance. A traditional mead is made and served much like a wine. We like it that way, but as you might expect, there are variations to it, like adding fruit (called a melomel) or herbs (called a methaglin) or malt (called a braggot). Meads typically are slow to ferment, and improve greatly with aging.
