I found some bottles of Lingonberry concentrate at Ikea and decided to try making a mead with it.
1 Gallon Test Batch: Started 11/20/14
3lbs Orange blossom honey
1lb Clover honey
500ml ( 1 bottle ) Saft Lingon Concentrate
1/2 tsp yeast nutrient
1/4 tsp Tanin
Lalvin 71B-1122 yeast
The online mead calculator estimates the OG at around 1.163
( Yes I know i should own a hydrometer by now..Next paycheck I swear )
I was considering adding the lingonberry syrup during secondary, but added it in primary instead. I will probably do a second batch the other way later on.
