- In this video, join me as I dive into the exciting process of creating a Key Lime Pie Mead. I'll walk you through the entire process, from gathering the essential ingredients like honey, key limes, and graham crackers to preparing the must and fermenting the mixture. Along the way, I'll share some valuable tips and insights I learned, making it easier for you to try this unique mead recipe at home. After the mead has had time to ferment and develop its flavors, I'll conduct a taste test to see how it turned out. Whether you're a seasoned homebrewer or just curious about mead-making, this video has something for everyone.

Algorithm served this up for me, few notes if you're interested;
Bleach is a fine sanitizer is small quantities, you can get test strips from restaurant supply places. Half the restaurants I've worked in use it to sanitize dishes etc.
If you want to keep that lime flavor more pronounced, consider back sweetening after fermentation with a lime syrup, just make sure to use something to kill off the yeast so it doesn't cause a second ferment.
May also want to rack the mead off the yeast/graham before initial ferment is done to keep off flavors from the dead yeast cake at the bottom.
Love the im'a do what I want outlook on mead making, never gonna get something new/innovative if ya don't try!
❤ I concur! I'll also add that 1 or 2 tbsp of lime zest (added to the syrup mentioned above) would have add an extra depth of flavour. After all, that's how many cooks add flavour to their citrus pies. The oils in the zest will be broken down by the alcohol and add all the floral and herbaceous notes that are missing.
As a boy of the Northeast, I have fond memories of lemon meringue pie - key lime's more sour and yellow cousin. Maybe you could give these suggestions a try in a lemon meringue variant of this experiment.
I completely agree that bleach is a perfectly harmless disinfectant, as long people use common sense when using it. After all, 16 drops per gallon is perfectly safe for human consumption and is a very cheap and easy way to disinfect water to make it potable.
Another suggestion, if you have some of sort of straw-like tube, you could use it like a pipette for your taste tests, by partially submerging it, then capping off the other end with the tip of your finger to create a small vacuum. That'll keep the germophobes from whining. It's your choice what you do though, and keep up the good work👍👍👍
@@jonathangauthier3549 love the advice thank you so much! I’ll definitely being trying again in a future video
@@gthippie thank you!
the vanilla sticks i would make a slice cut on one side and scrape the contents out , this way they give the most flavour,, my two cents ,, good work keep on.
I like that idea
Great recipe! Quick tip though, take some lime zest and add it to the recipe. It will make the lime flavor much better. Lime juice just seems a little weak for flavor but works well for acidity.
Man, i'd love to try it! Actually never had real mead... but im in a mood of making a bunch of alchooholic stuff because of my mom, so i'd love to give it a try!
Another thing that could help you in the long run is putting a amazon afilliate link, i dont even know what to buy in order to make mead. And you will recieve a comission from every purchase we made
@@Venikkk interesting I’m gonna look into that thank you! Just put my application up for it

@@roweinnovation thank you haha New RUclipsr
My grampa died from bleach laced mead. Caused him to drive off a bridge doing 150mph.
Please take care of yourself man. Is saving a little money worth risking your life?
Trust me, if you rinse twice you got nothing to worry about, if the yeast lives I will too. But thank you for your worries and when my channel grows I’ll be using different cleaners
Even touching the outside of a bottle of bleach could be fatal.
@@ducksound8023 do you know the spray of 50% water and bleach solution over chicken at the grocery store? Your food is poisoning
@@HurtHomestead No they don't. I worked at a grocery store's meat department. Being fired is the least that will happen to you if you did that.
@@aristotle29 sorry I was wrong they use chlorine after more research. But the yeast wouldn’t be able to live and ferment if it was bad for us
@@HurtHomestead you got solid point
@@HurtHomestead no they dont
