Just the first 2 or 3 I clicked on had Irish moss, not needed. And you can omit the boiling because it removes some of the flavor of the honey. Not that they are bad recipes, just omit those steps. Things like lemon juice and irish moss tend to show up in recipes that are older. The link was just to show him the recipes here on HBT. Same things apply to the older ones in there.

Sorry if I my post came across as snippy. Just posting up quickly from work. It was not intentional.

I like to use fruit juices for my 1 gallon batches. I've had good luck with cranberry, pomegranate (I added lime zest) and blueberry. I also made a blackberry mead that I used frozen Goya fruit.

If you have a larger carboy/bucket availible, I would also recomend starting a larger batch of straight mead and racking onto the juice later.
