Heggir Mead Review

 



Bought some Cherry Mead from Groennfell Meadery for Hubby and myself.  I've had Mead before, and I liked it, but this was...  I have no words to describe how terrible this was.  It tasted like strait alcohol and cherry tree barrels, far from the balanced flavor promised by the company.  I give it 3 out of 10 for the fact that it has a strong alcohol taste as described, but everything else missed the mark.  I wish I hadn't wasted any money on this.

The next time I start early and make my own, I'm happy to give the recipe to those who want it.  I will post the non-alcoholic one because of the possibility of minors reading my social media.

Kjøpte litt Cherry Mead til Hubby og meg selv.  Jeg har hatt Mead før, og jeg likte det, men dette var...  Jeg har ingen ord for å beskrive hvor forferdelig dette var.  Det smakte som straitalkohol og kirsebærtrefat, langt fra den balanserte smaken som ble lovet av selskapet.  Jeg gir det 3 av 10 for det faktum at det har en sterk alkohol smak som beskrevet, men alt annet savnet merket.  Skulle ønske jeg ikke hadde kastet bort penger på dette.

Neste gang jeg begynner tidlig og lager min egen, er jeg glad for å gi oppskriften til de som vil ha den.  Jeg vil legge ut den alkoholfrie på grunn av muligheten for at mindreårige leser mine sosiale medier.

In a medium size pot, add rice and water and bring to a boil. Lower heat to a gentle simmer, cover and leave for 10 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed. 2. Add 1/3 of the milk, stir, cover and leave until the consistency thickens. Add a little more milk every time the porridge’s consistency thickens – approximately every 5-10 minutes or so. Repeat until all the milk is used, porridge is thick, and rice is tender. The entire process should take 45-55 minutes. 3. Add butter, honey, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract and stir well. 4. Turn the heat off and serve porridge in bowls topped with a small pat of butter (optional), a little cinnamon powder and dried cranberries.
