I actually did this a few months ago with coke, unfortunately the baking soda flavour intensified and made it pretty much undrinkable, I imagine yours will too but good luck 🤞 👍
I started my first mead 8 days ago. Your videos sparked my mead journey. I’ve thought about using molasses as a substitute for most of the sugar content. Thoughts on how it may turn out? ( my one mead fermenting right now is just honey mead)
@@dorothyyoung8231 It would be rum if you distilled it after fermentation is complete. Most rums are made from fermenting some type of sugar. Cane-based sugars are the most common.
I'm currently doing a Baja Blast mead. Racked it for the first time last night after a month of fermentation. Honestly, it tasted a lot better than I expected so far. 😂😂 Planning to fortify it in a couple weeks.
your video making skill are great, videos are well paced with no wasted time but please document the whole process start to finish - taste reviews and all🙏
Some of my favorite homemade wine was using grocery store ingredients. I usually try to get something labeled natural to avoid preservatives though. Never thought of trying to counteract them. 😂 I'm definitely trying trying this!
I've done a straight "mountain dew wine" with Mountain Dew Throwback which, IIRC, was made with sugar rather than corn syrup. Then I juiced it up with more plain white sugar. I was winging it and it came out too dry. But...yeah, well, you'll see. ;-)
Hey bro, thank you for inspiring me with your content. I'm from India and have ordered the basic equipment needed to prepare a batch of my own. I've also ordered campden tablets and bentonite clay...I want to ask is it necessary to stabilize the mead, and do I also need different kinds of acids (citrus, malic) to put in the mixture before fermentation?
I'm moving in a few months and I don't know if my yeast will make it. So what the heck. I'm trying the same thing but with sugar (more of it in hand that has to be gone through) and with Code Red (since you've already started the meme). Should be interesting.
Good point, but he also added honey, so it might technically be considered a braggot, a hybrid of beer and mead. Maybe add a touch of hops in the next batch to amplify the beer character.
Question: do you ever sell or do anything with the mead you make or are just doing it for shits and giggles? I’d love to try the meads you make but I’m too dumb (and broke) to make it myself
Sunday I learned you can order soda from applebees by the gallon Now I want to try their dark berry bash in mead form. Do you have rough estimations of how much honey and how much baking soda you used so I can attempt to replicate your expeiriment here?
I'm going to assume that your company is based in America, since you don't have any company location information on your site or youtube account, and you primarily ferment American soft drinks. My question is : If American soft drinks use high fructose corn syrup (bad for fermentation), are you sourcing your soft drinks from manufacturers that use sugar in their products?
Sometimes I feel like the internet is an amazing invention to help us gain knowledge. Then you see people who learned how to make something, then proceed to ruin the entire idea of it, and still gets paid
I am looking at the mead fermenting on my shelf and thinking “I wonder if I could use soda to make mead” and came across this video. The RUclips algorithm is a scary thing…

24 hrs later we have fermentation 🎉
If this works im going to tell my future kids this is how you make regular wine.
Ever tried whipping the honey first? I’m curious if it would change anything
YAAAAAGHHHHH
Hey buddy are we still waiting on that update for that mountain Dew👍

Keep the council updated on important details, with a taste test!
Baja blast mead?
Sprite Cranberry mead?
Omg yes
Yea
Helo bean king

I believe molasses would be a good substitute but I think you should add spices like cinnamon, ginger or nutmeg to compliment the flavors
….Im shocked that after looking it up molasses has a similar sugar content to honey….🤯
I would so be interested to see molasses and anise mead.
It’s called rum.

Subscribing for the results, can't wait this is so interesting.

That's most definitely whats up toobz
I bet the taste will be dewine!
How much baking soda did you use?
please don't use baking soda, try finding calcium carbonate or even potassium bicarbonate. humans are very sensitive to the taste of sodium
As a huge mnt dew drinker I am subscribing just to hear the outcome of this experiment.
The mad lad actually did it!
Shout out kingcobrajfs
He knows lmao
@@mikefloyd3152but we didnt
Mountain Mead?
Meadtain Dew
@@Chaznar27 No-Honey Dew Mead
Mountain dew wine? TWU!
Helluva commercial for you kit and website!
your video making skill are great, videos are well paced with no wasted time but please document the whole process start to finish - taste reviews and all🙏
I subscribed just because of this project
I'm very curious as to if this actually ferments.
I wonder how real sugar MTN Dew would tast compared to the normal stuff
This is insane, I can’t wait to see how it turns out 😂 I’ve considered using cola before but was never sure what would happen
No matter what, I bet it tastes better than those hard seltzer mountain dews.
Hey buddy are we still waiting on that update for that mountain Dew🦾👽🙏😎👍
The Glyphid Slammer.

It measures dissolved solids, it will work off you use sugars or salts. So anything else that's dissolved into mountain dew will read on a hydrometer.
Can't wait to see how this turns out!
you should try making mountain dew vinegar next time
When I was a schoolboy, we did this with Kool-ade, sugar, yeast, and we put a balloon on top instead of air chamber
It would be interesting to try to use the final product to make some vinegar.
Hey question have you tried doing more exotic fruits, I think you should try making star fruit mead. They're like a much more sweet apple.
Looking forward to hearing how it tastes
You made Mountain Dew wine???!!! I love you
Would be actually great if do a taste test
I definitely would not have added the honey
I’m so excited to see the result. Should make root beer mead after this 😂
I can't even imagine what that's gonna taste like lol, also will the caffeine counteract the effects of the mead is another question I wanna know
Do you have a recipe for Dr. Pepper Mead? I'm asking because I want to make mead from my most favorite soda.
I’m very curious for this one
I think hf corn syrup may be a better idea as it's the sweetener in Mountain Dew and should preserve the original flavor better
Really excited
So, what's happening? Has it finished fermenting? Anything to report?
This recipe just got featured on After Midnight with Taylor Tomlinson.
try making grape kool-aid wine next
Subscribed specifically to know about the mtn mead 😂
Quick question….. can you make wine out of gravy? No reason….

How much baking soda
6 months later. Did it fail or still fermenting?
doritos backsweetener PLEASE
Try it with cheerwine!
What was the actuall amount of dew, honey, and baking soda that you used
Love your content keep it up
Need to know how this goes
I'm moving in a few months and I don't know if my yeast will make it. So what the heck. I'm trying the same thing but with sugar (more of it in hand that has to be gone through) and with Code Red (since you've already started the meme). Should be interesting.
That's just disgusting.
Surely since you are fermenting the sugars from grain (high fructose *corn* syrup) this is beer, right? :D
Good point, but he also added honey, so it might technically be considered a braggot, a hybrid of beer and mead. Maybe add a touch of hops in the next batch to amplify the beer character.
My first batch of dew mead is fermenting. Hopefully, it pans out 😂
Can’t wait for this one!
Can I get a reminder for the update video?
Hey homie imma sound dumb but is this real? I won’t try it I don’t drink but is this real??? I’m tryna come back in however long cause I’m intrigued
How’d it go? Was there a video update?
Gotta see this
Question: do you ever sell or do anything with the mead you make or are just doing it for shits and giggles? I’d love to try the meads you make but I’m too dumb (and broke) to make it myself
Unless you have a brewers license, you can't legally sell alcohol you make. The government WILL fuck your day up if you do
Sunday I learned you can order soda from applebees by the gallon
Now I want to try their dark berry bash in mead form. Do you have rough estimations of how much honey and how much baking soda you used so I can attempt to replicate your expeiriment here?
please use calcium carbonate instead, sodium gets very salty very quick
Can you please upload things longer than a minute
Can you try it with baja Blast or code red?? Please 🙏
How much baking soda did you use
Do a follow up!
Wait so are you making mead or wine?

Isn’t it dangerous to make alcohol at home. Like can it not turn to ethanol how I will know it is safe to drink
You need to clip the line from The 13th Warrior (1999):
“It’s made from honey!”
Considering how much sugar is in Mountain Dew, you probably just made moonshine
How long do you think it will take to be ready?
I just saw something online, dude u made the NEWS!! 🍷
How’d it turn out?
So there is no updates
time for some monster energy mead
How much baking soda???
Gamers gone be shook after drinking this
My brother in odin the final mead will not be microbialy stable at a pH of 5
No Baja Blast?
This is the true gatorwine
Very ironic because Mountain Dew is old slang for Moonshine.
I NEED AN UPDATE
0:10 you look so oddly pleased, it's endearing haha. Having fun?
Where is update
Oh wow. Next test it against the real sugar version
And what about Dr Pepper?
Is there a class we can do?
I dub the, Mountain Mead
It’d be nice to see a Coca-Cola Alchoolic beverage.
Collab with King Cobra JFS
Wine/mead with a pH of 5? Doesn't sound that will be an aging mead.
I am looking at the mead fermenting on my shelf and thinking “I wonder if I could use soda to make mead” and came across this video. The RUclips algorithm is a scary thing…
damnit i wanna know the udpate now i have to wait like 3 weeks.
Something tells me the Mountain Dew Mead will be something that'd be better off dumped to the ground in terms of flavor...
Wonder if kingcobra jfs is going to find this and bog it up
The real question, mountain dew or mountain don't
