I made some about a year ago I did a low alcohol on it So it'll be a light social drink Came out pretty good people enjoyed it ...... P.S. ...... Be very careful when opening up the bottles after Cold storage they do have a tendency to explode when opening lol
I was doing a rootbeer mead with rootbeer tea (is on amazon) there's also sarsaparilla tea.... it contains everything found in rootbeer or sarsaparilla drinks plus extra I hope it goes aswell as yours
Off topic - I am still new to mead making and was just wondering how long you let your mead sit on bentonite added after primary and stabilization? It is a traditional mead, TIA. Root beer mead sounds good, maybe one day I will give it a shot.
This is really weird I was just talking to a friend of mine about a root beer mead and your video rolls up into my feed. I was thinking of making it with bochet honey. The little keg you mentioned can you use a bottling wand with it? Great video thank you.
Last Dec i made metheglin using the base for a tradition root beer i made from scratch instead of water, 3lbs of buckwheat honey and 2lbs of mesquite honey, k1-v1116 for yeast. came out to 1.024 fg. Probably the best mead i made so far.
I'm from the uk so not too sure if I'm right but I heard sassafras was banned as a food additive in the us. I only found this after researching an old Beverage I had heard of called cronk. Which had slogans such as cronkk is the drink drink cronk. Its main ingredients being, Sarsaparilla Beer, or simply Cronk, was an American flavoured small beer made with sassafras, sarsaparilla, ginger, green tea and molasses; believed to have had a taste resembling "spicy root beer."
Safrole, which is found in the root of sassafras, was banned by the FDA in the 60s(?). Meaning it's illegal to put it in foods sold to the public. I don't think they'll care or know if you put it in your mead as long as you're not selling it.
Can you put zeros in front of the decimal point on your menu cards in future. I misread the priming sugar for one gallon as 7oz which had I not spotted it, it would have been explosively dangerous!!
I grew up drinking sassafras tea. It was my dad’s favorite and anytime he could find some, he’d bring it home for us to make tea. Everyone is still alive and well.
@@TrenbologneSandwich True. And concentrated sassafras extract also widely available. The hallucinogenic properties just sound like a good time but the carcinogen issue gives me pause.

You had me at Root Beer, don't care what even comes after. BUT I want to try this now. I will be making 2 maybe 3 batches this weekend myself.
This sounds super fun!
Love the upgrade havent caught a vid in for ever! May just do this havent made a batch in a long time
How did you know I wanted you to do this? I didn't even tell you!
sounds delicious, looking forward to trying it myself :)
does it taste ok if you don't carbonate it?
I haven’t tried that but I think it’d be okay! It’d kind of taste weak at a lower abv (like this recipe is).
Burnt Barrel Meadery did this, it was amazing

I haven't tried that... I don't know if there is a connection to do that!
Last I looked, McCormick discontinued the Zattarains Root beer extract, which sucks, cause that stuff was awesome.

(My eyesight ain't so great)
There is one!
Serious question for MMM: would you have any concerns of judging a root beer mead made with an unknown concentration of real sassafras root extract?
I don't have any big concerns!
I grew up drinking sassafras tea. It was my dad’s favorite and anytime he could find some, he’d bring it home for us to make tea. Everyone is still alive and well.
As I was searching for sassafras I found it had been outlawed fir some reasons citing cancer and hallucinations in large doses.
High amounts of sassafras contains Safrole which in high concentrations causes cancer
True sassafras is banned as a food additive in the U.S. due to concentrations of safrole. Yet widely available…🤔
Crazy how they banned Safrole because of MDMA but didn't ban matches because of meth
It should absolutely be widely available, it's a plant

Why didn't you just make it a Methligen.
