I know I did- and I have lot's to tell you about this week. But today, it's all about the cocktail. And well, it's not so much a cocktail as an interesting spirit. I read about this local mead company over at Serious Eats, and after doing a little research I found that Astor Wines carried it! Astor Wines is in my hood, so I knew I had to give it a try.
Mead is wine made out of honey. It tastes kind of like white wine, but it also tastes very uniquely mead-y. It might be impossible to accurately describe, so you'll probably have to go out and try some for yourself.
It tastes best extremely cold. In fact, I wouldn't hold it against you if you put an ice cube or two in your glass.
It actually tastes great with the addition of a frozen strawberry.
Mead is strange, but interesting. And local mead? Well, you know I couldn't say no.
Trying something new is always fun.
Playing,
Meredith
