ButterBean Honey and Blackberry Mead

I whipped up another batch of mead tonight.  This batch is made from honey produced by apiaries that service butterbean fields, mixed with a spiced tea made from blackberry preserves, cinnamon, nutmeg, juniper berries, a dash of rosemary and some anise seed.

It should be ready in about a week, just in time for my Haloween Party.

My basic recipe is for homemade mead is located here.

  • You don’t hear of too many mead drinkers these days. Does this mean you are also a regular at Renaissance Faires?

  • My wife is a huge fan of the Ren Fairs. She pushed and I finally got a costume. After she dragged me there several times I really began to enjoy it quite a bit! Nothing beats a lazy fall afternoon of drinking mead, eating turkey legs and singing pirate songs! Arrr!

    And yeah, I’ve become a big fan of the mead. My first mead kit was picked up at the VA Renfair, and I hacked the recipe to make something of my own from scratch.
