CYSER

This is a mixture of honey and apple juice. Use the recipe on for apple wine but replace some of the sugar with honey as above.

All these fruit meads need to be served medium sweet and you should try to serve them at a S.G. of about 1.010. Unless you have an exceptionally cultivated palate for these drinks, their flavour when dry is not really so pleasant as when slightly sweet. They are obviously very nutritious as well as delightful drinks and if you have access to honey at a reasonable price they are well worth making. Imported honey can often be bought at about half the price of English honey if you are willing to take a fair quantity of, say, 14 Ib. or more at a time.
