Guest guest Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 I agree with you Susie, My husband makes it. I don't care for it either. When we moved, the movers drank it all with some apple cider (the HARD kind) I KNOW they were hurtin the next day. We got all the empty containers. Heh heh You could try soaking raisins in some or pouring it over cake, the same way you would do with rum.

Guest guest Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 If it's the commercial kind, it isn't very tasty, so I can understand not liking the flavor. I don't care for the Chaucer's brand at all. It doesn't taste anything like mead should taste! That is the only commercial brand available here, althugh there are some parts of the country that do have some good commercial brands. I know a LOT of home brewers who make it in small quantities - all varieties - from sweet plain honey mead to a drier sparkling kind to many different fruit additions. The homemade mead is usually really good! Once people try it they almost always want to have more and many will start brewing it themselves. We recently had some wonderful raspberry mead that a friend just made and I have tried hazelnut and strawberry-chocolate meads that were great! When it is hot here (Calif.) in the summer, we sometimes put a scoop of vanilla ice cream in our friend's sweet honey mead, for a 'mead float'! But I wouldn't recommend that using the commercial kind though - it's too dry and icky.
