Faolans Spiced Cranberry Orange Mead
This is the sweeter version of my original Cranberry Orange mead that I have been making for several years now. This is actually derived from a late 15th century text on wine making noting that "Meade is a wine from the sweetest necture of the lowly bee...". Redacted recipe. Does not include fermenting time.
