I've got honey suckle everywhere around my house this year. The smell is awesome! I found this recipe for honeysuckle wine and would like to convert it to a honeysuckle mead recipe. I was thinking about just substituting 3lbs of clover honey for the sugar that it calls for? I'd like to do a 1 gal batch this year let it age for about 11 months and if its good do a 5 gal next year about this same time. Any suggestions?
* 4 cups honeysuckle blossoms
* 5 1/2 cups granulated sugar
* juice and rind of 2 oranges
* 1/2 pound raisins
* 2 teaspoons acid blend
* 1 teaspoon pectic enzyme
* 1 campden tablet
* 1 teaspoon nutrients
* 1 teaspoon tannin
* water to make 1 gallon
* 1 package wine yeast (I'm thinking Red Star Cote des Blancs)
