You make it in much the same way you make warm spiced apple cider or mulled wine. However, it also depends a lot on the type of mead you use. I haven't made it in over twenty-five years and the company that made the mead I used is no longer around. So Rynar, did you make it yourself? |

No, I simmered a small amount of this with roasted cinnamon and clove, and dried orange rind wrapped in fabric netting.

It's extra-ordinarily good mead. As to mead in general? Check your local liquor store with the best wine selection, and ask them where they keep their mead. Most won't have many, so you'll be able to find their best after only a small amount of sampling. I would also suggest attending several wine tastings, and asking the distributors about any meads they might supply. In my experience, they are more than happy to work with you to find one you'll like. The spicing I used is listed above, but I'll expand. In this batch I used a very small amount oven roasted cinnamon, three times that amount of roasted clove, and 10 times the amount of dried orange rind and bound them up in a fine fabric netting and set it into a sauce pan containing a full bottle of mead. I simmered this over slow and low heat for about 20 minutes without bringing the mead to a boil, to allow the mead to steep like tea, and then I poured it for my honey and I. |

There are beer style meads and wine style meads. Wine style works best for mulling like that, but you probably already knew that. Beer style is pretty rare, I've only had it in Australia (20 years ago) and I've heard of homebrew beer style mead here but I've never had it. If you come across Rabbits Foot Mead it should be pretty good. It is made by some friends of mine in the bay area, commercially sold at some BevMo stores and through them. Blatant commercial plug and I make no money off this http://www.rabbitsfootmeadery.com/ |

You sure that's not the latest, greatest penny stock? Can I rub it onto my skin?!?!?!

Privately owned, not listed and not all that big. But as far as it goes, use the mead as a skin conditioner, sure, if you want to. |

B. Nektar Meadery makes a pretty good product, but I'm biased toward individual artisan batches from non-commercial meaderies. As for warm, spiced mead ... You forgot the sage. |

Yum! I love warm spiced mead, I forget the name of the brand I normally get off hand, but the bottle actually comes with mulling spices in tea bag like packets for when you heat it up. |

This thread is confusing. Let me just clarify: if you're rubbing your mead or your meat (or rubbing mead on your meat), you are doing something wrong. Something very, very wrong. |
