Infused mead

A few months back, I took a gallon of the plain mead I made in the spring of 2009 and dumped in a package of frozen Berry Medley (a mixture of strawberries, raspberries, blackberries and blueberries.)  This sat a couple of months, and turned out really nicely.  I had about 2.5 gallons left, so I have tried more infusions:

  • .25 oz whole peppercorns into 1/2 gallon
  • .5 oz coriander and .5 oz orange zest into a gallon
  • 1 tsp gunpowder green tea into .5 gallon

I’ll test them out in a couple of months to see how they are.  The coriander and orange is the one I think will be the biggest hit, but the others should be interesting.
