After I learned how easy it is to make mead, I was super excited to start making the wine. I however did not want to wait until the weekend so I could start the wine making endeavor with my buddy Josh who wanted in. I had been doing a lot of reading and found a wine making recipe for cheap easy mead on stormthecastle.com. Anyway I thought I’d give it a shot. I pretty much followed the wine making directions except I used lemons instead of oranges when I made my honey wine. I did this because when I think of honey and tea, well heck, lemon just sounds better. I also cut my lemon into like 8 wedges and then halved them before adding them to the recipe. I used bleach to sanitize everything. By the next day I had a lot of bubbles, my homemade mead was being made and I was making homemade wine. I will keep you posted on this batch. See the Cheap Easy Mead Recipe.
