A while back we bought a gallon jug of Killer Bee honey, and I've been waiting for the inspiration for what to do with it. We came across a final bottle of our homebrewed Pom-Apple mead and I was inspired. So I bought apple juice, pomegranate juice, and this time, HOPS! to add to it The recipe is as follows:
1 gal killer bee honey
2 gal Apple Juice
32 oz (1/2 gal) Pomegranate juice
Water to bring it to ~5 gal
2 oz Mount Hood American Brewmaster Leaf Hops
2.5 tsp yeast nutrient
4 tsp high alcohol yeast nutrient
1 package dry mead yeast
Man. Who knew how hard stuffing leafy hops into a tiny bottle neck could be!
Can't wait to taste this. The current alcohol potential is 17% I'm hoping it'll stop with a residual ~3-5% sugar which will make it about 12-14% alcohol
Yum
