Finishing the Spiced Metheglin Mead. This was an attempt to recreate a recipe that I.... didn't take notes on, sadly. I did that a lot years ago, and, well, I regret it sometimes. The original mead was a little... strong at first, but over a couple years of aging, mellowed to one of my favorite meads of all time. We hoped this recreation of this spiced metheglin mead would do the same.

Meadowsweet Mead. How to Make an Easy Mead Recipe with the ORIGINAL Mead Herb. A few people have asked us to do this, so we thought, why not? Meadowsweet has been used for centuries in meadmaking, and it even shares a history with the word mead itself, making it the original mead herb and addition. Why? Well, they say it adds an almond like flavor to the mead, and meadowsweet is a highly sought after herb for medicinal and healing properties. Early meads were part food preservation, part medicine, and part booze. When you can combine all three, that's a huge win. For this mead we added some non-traditional ingredients such as orange zest, but you can leave it out if you like. I'm unsure of tea being around at the time this was used, but, I like the tannins the tea adds to a mead, so we used it. Hey, we didn't say this was an authentic or traditional recipe, just a mead WITH the original mead herb ;) As always, thank you for watching and have a great day! Ingredients: 3/4 ounce (21 grams) Meadowsweet (we used an herb flower mix in this mead, but traditionally just the flowers were used): https://amzn.to/3A7uHsq Red Star Premier Blanc Yeast: https://amzn.to/3C3TT4W 1 Tablespoon (11.9 grams) Dehydrated Orange Zest 1 Cup of Black Tea: https://amzn.to/3jioe7h 2 1/2 lbs (1.13 kg) Sweet Squeeze Orange Blossom Honey: https://amzn.to/3jhhlTK 1 gallon (3.78 liters) Warm Water New to Brewing?
