You ever wonder where the term honeymoon comes from?
I'm about to tell you.
See in the Middle Ages when a young couple got married their family would give them a moon, or a month's worth of honey mead.
And then the young couple would go off, frolick, and make merry for a few weeks and hopefully come back with a bun in the oven.
So that's what we're making today.
Not a baby, mead.
So whether you're a Saxon warrior positioned in your shield wall or a marauding Norse viking, get ready for that sweet sweet, taste of alcoholic honey - mead.
