Some time in the next week I'm going to press a lot of apples to make cider. I also have a mead that I racked into secondary about a week ago.
I'm thinking about blending some of it produce a Cyser of sorts. Since the mead has already fermented, I'm wondering what the best way to proceed is.
I could let the cider ferment out and then blend before bottling or add the apple juice to the cider and let it all ferment together. The first way would be easier and I'd have a better idea what I would get--a combination of flavors and an alcohol content in between the two. The second way would be much more of an experiment and the alcohol would be even higher than the mead.
Anyone have any experience with this sort of thing?
