My First Mead

Inevitably making all this wine has led me to now make Mead as well. This is my first Mead. If you didn't know, Mead is a fermented honey beverage. It's just like wine but made with honey instead.

Mead has been made for over two thousand years or more. Some might even argue that it was the first fermented drink. I just thought it would be fun to try and make it.

The directions I used were compiled from many I found on the Internet. The specific name for the Mead I'm making is Pyment Mead. This type of Mead has honey with added fruit or fruit juice. My Mead has organic honey and added white grape concentrate.

It's in it's second week of fermentation. I'll keep you updated as it finishes off.
