Default carrot cider?

I post this almost jokingly, but i was also wondering opinions... is fresh carrot juice able to be fermented? In theory, could one make carrot mead or carrot cider?
Hm, i might try to make a pint or at most a gal of carrot cider just to see. If its nasty, it could make a good white elephant gift...

Support Medicinal Mead
Another reason not to boil honey when making mead: Honey which comes from local bees carries pollen and pathogens relevant to your area. Consuming these natural medicines will boost your resistance to local pollens and other allergens. Boiling destroys them.
If all else fails, just drink more mead anyway...

Yes, and I believe Orfy made a carrot wine. I've never made it, but I would if I had enough carrots. I have a recipe somewhere in a book that I'll try to dig up later today. (I have an appointment in about 15 minutes!)

I've always loved fresh carrot juice from the juicer, and even better is adding a couple apples to the mix - apple/carrot juice is heavenly!!! Well, just think about the possibilities - hard apple cider is great; why not add carrots and a little honey for a carro-cyser !!!

Carro-cyser sounds like an updhoch.
