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.
