>>If one were to add maple syrup and blueberries to the honey...
Hmm, that sounds heavenly. Any recipes online for that? I’ve used honey in some of my homebrews, but never done a full mead. You probably need champagne yeast for that?
12 pounds of honey.
1 pound of maple syrup
1 quart of blueberries
water in the usual quantity.
champagne yeast.
I let it ferment for about 90 days. Then before bottling it I used charging sugar and put it into punted champagne bottles.
I called it Lurkers Sparkling Blueberry Mead. (yea, technically it's a pyment but wth..)
Wicked good stuff.
