I love mad science. In the past I have used liter bottles to make experimental meads with varying success. Below are my wins and losses.

Espresso- FAIL
Celery- Epic WIN
Serrano and Hot Sauce- Win
Lavender- FAIL
Edit: Okra- Good Lord Fail
So, I have a new crazy idea. Okra!

Here'e the plan

1 liter water
1 lb honey
25 raisins for yeast food
10 medium okra pods, halved
1 teaspoon Di-Go breadyeast

I'm thinking the slime will actually add to mouthfeel and I'll get a nice kinda grassy flavored mead. What do you all think?

Edit: 1/6/13 Yeah... totally a stupid idea.

Didn't you make a cucumber mead also, or was that some other crazy jackass?

Don't waste the okra! Make a spicy gumbo or jambalaya instead. Holy sh*t okra mead sounds gross. Jeez CG, you must be bored...

That sounds truly disgusting. I vote for a better experiment.

Might I suggest a durian mead? Offer it to Andrew Zimmern when it's ready.

New Yorkers think they’re so jaded that it’s impossible to shock them. They think they’ve seen and heard it all, and that may be mostly true. But I can tell you from experience that, at 2am in Midtown, pretty much every person on the street will stop and gawk when they see a guy holding hands with one midget, and another midget on his shoulders yelling out: “WHO RUN BARTERTOWN? I RUN BARTERTOWN!”
