While I was brewing the Christmas beer I went ahead and made cider/mead mix with some holiday spices. The must tasted delicious.
I added to a 1 gallon fermenter:
1/4 tsp of nutmeg
1/4 tsp of allspice
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2/3 of a container of honey that was old and crystallized
filled the rest with apple juice
1 packet of sweet mead yeast wlp720 - mfg sept 24, 2016 - lot 1029685
So I warmed up the honey with the sparge water. I added the spices first, then the honey, then the apple juice, then the yeast. I shook it up real good to aerate as much as I good. Below are the pics of the honey and apple juice. OG was 1.088!
