I have some awesome chipotles, I've grown the jalapeños, smoked them over mesquite and dried them myself. I thought a cherry chipotle mead sounds awesome, and clover honey was on sale, sooo, this is the recipe I've come up with.
3 gallons
10.5 lb clover honey
Nutrient and energizer
1 cup black tea
3 chipotles
Lalvin 1122
Ferment till dry, nutrient additions and aeration for the first 7 days.
Rack onto 3 bottles organic sour cherry juice and 3 lb dried sweet cherries.
How does this sound?
