Honey wine (mead) with elder flowers??? Woo!

This is brought to you by my searching for "elderflower honey" after having found elderflower syrup at a local gourmet market while searching for orange flower water (which I eventually found, in the wines/spirits section, with the lime and grenadine syrup. Who'd-a thunk it).

Green tea wine? Or mead? (still sounds odd)

Chocolate? Surely you are trying to lure me to my doom in Oregon just as silvaerina_tael is in Nova Scotia (http://www.livejournal.com/users/tass/407295.html?thread=1039615#t1039615).

We'll have some ready for our poly-wedding in mid September, come to it and you'll get to see what she's been brewing (the pear, the cranberry, and maybe the green tea should all be ready by then).

Might happen. Do you have a set date? I might be able to plan now...

[heron61.livejournal.com]

Mid September, the weekend of the 10th or the 17th, likely the later. We will have decided on an exact date in no more than 2 weeks, and likely less.

Y'know, that gives me as idea that I should try for Yule - a Yule meade. Pear, cranberry, cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, and, if I can get any, yew berry... Should be interesting...

Hmmm.. better put a warning label on that one!

[silvaerina-tael.livejournal.com]

*snicker* yeah, I know. It *is* a yule meade...

[heron61.livejournal.com]

Mmmm, that sounds incredibly good.

If I manage to get the equpment together for both, I'll try to bring some with me to Thresholds - though they'll likely be rather green (unless I go with a few one gallon carboys - they "perk" quicker.).
