Two Gallons of Mead: Bottled

One gallon of rhubarb mead and one gallon of rhubarb-cranberry mead, bottled, corked and ready to mellow. That's what I made today.

rose AKA Walk in the Woods - she/her said...: Mead is - simply - honey wine (which historic consensus defines as the original wine!).

And it is delightful!

As anonymous said, "mmmmmm! *licks lips*"

Perchance will some make it to FFF?; July 26, 2008 at 6:28 AM

TheWoodyNook said...: Oh, I would LOVE to have the recipe for this!! I've been wanting to make some mead...just haven't got round to it yet. We've made dandilion wine for the past couple of years, but took a break from it this year....; July 28, 2008 at 10:29 AM
rose AKA Walk in the Woods - she/her said...: I am reluctant to share any recipe before it has proven itself (meaning: I taste and approve). So . . . I'll know about these meads in about a month's time. :); July 30, 2008 at 9:55 AM
Daniela! said...: Hello, I saw you at pinterest. Please for what is this "ruibarb cranberry" ? I live in Brazil and unfortunatelly here we have just the cranberry juice not the fruit.
How did you make it and for what?
Thanks so much,

rose AKA Walk in the Woods - she/her said...: Nice to meet you Daniela ~ I am blessed to live in a region where cranberries grow … and the rhubarb grows in my own garden. As for how I make it … it is like making any wine, except using honey in place of sugar (that's what makes it mead) and any fruits in place of the conventional grapes. I make it to … enjoy! :); March 26, 2012 at 8:19 AM
