Spiced Mead

This is the recipe for the Spiced Mead that I brought to the shire champion event several years ago. The Mead was three months old at the event and had been racked twice at one month intervals.

Ingredients:

• 1 Lemon
• 3 1/2 lb. Honey
• 2 Sticks Cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Whole Cloves
• small chunk of nutmeg (smashed into spice bag)
• 1 inch sliced ginger.
• 1 pack Epernay Yeast

Place all spices into cheese cloth bag. Soak in must for fifteen minutes. Add yeast when cooled.
