So, I wanted to do a sweet mead close to a year ago. I wasn't overly worked up over it, and didn't give it the attention it needed. The end result is that I've got a 5.25% abv mead with an FG of ~1.065. I do know what went wrong as such. I needed to be better about nutrients and stirring the yeast up etc. Anyhow, the original recipe was just generic cheap honey from Sam's club, vanilla extract, water, and sweet mead yeast. Any ideas on how to make use of it? I'm thinking maybe getting or making some hard cider for mixing with it, but I'm open to anything. It definitely tastes like a sweet mead, just a little extra sweet and a little less alcoholic bite to it.
