Sweet mead aged for 9 months on freshly squeezed lime juice. Best served straight or with a dash of soda water and a lemon wedge on ice.
We are always on the hunt for local growers of, well, anything that sounds like it would make a good mead. The folks at Twin Pines Limes in Hampton, Queensland are only 10 minutes from us, and their limes have got to be the tastiest ones we have ever had.
They supplied us with fresh limes juice which we put into a batch of traditional style mead. So the main ingredients in this mead is water, honey, lime juice & yeast. When the fermentation process had finished, which usually takes 6-8 weeks, we then gently pumped it into an ageing tank, where it sat for an extra 9 months. When it cleared & the flavour was to our high standards, it got finely filtered then bottled. A lot of time, love & patience goes into every bottle.
