Hi all,
I'm continuing my journey through recipe book that I found at home and wanted to ask your opinion on this one (also if something should be adjusted). As far as ingredients goes it does look tasty
"Regal" mead:
Put all leaves, flowers and hops into water and boil it, then strain it and add all the honey. Once cooled down add started yeast and all the juices. Store in warm place and let it ferment for 24h. After that pour it into bottles and keep it in cool place. Ready to drink after 3-6 months

"Regal" mead:
- 3kg of honey;
- 12 L of water;
- few handfuls of "Jeronimo" leaves. While I was able to easily locate this plant in my country it was not that easy in UK. I think it's this one as description matches more or less (Pelargonium);
- half a glass of hops;
- handfull of linden flowers;
- few leaves of wild strawberries;
- 200g of yeast. I guess they meant bread yeast which is normally sold in 200g batches and need to be started before you can use them. I have some Lalvin K1-V1116;
- Glass of (each) Strawberry, Raspberry, Cranberry, Red Currant, Black Currant juices.
