Gurgle gurgle


French for mead is hydromel.   I have tried to make it before, but the homey I used was from a supermarket, and the result was not as I would like.   One of the things the locals do around here is keep bees, and so I got a decent lot of real honey from known, local sources.   Some special yeast and nutrient from a friend and it's bubbling away nicely.

This reminds me of when my Dad you to make homemade wine.

Gorse was the best but picking the blooms was a painstaking activity.

Bonjour Cherry, I once made dandelion wine, and separating the petals took all afternoon. But not as scratchy as gorse!
