[QUOTE="BamaProud, post: 3782296, member: 9871"] This is something you could literally make in the wild with essentially no modern equipment with the exception of a vessel to hold the beverage. Honey isn't cheep, so I decided not to spend 100 dollars to make a 5gal batch. I used 3.5 pounds of local honey, a few allspice berries, a few juniper berries and a little cinnamon and nutmeg for flavor. Could have added yeast but I am gambling a little and attempting to let it ferment with natural airborne yeasts. Its kinda rumored or theorized that if you use local honey, you have a better chance that local yeasts will create a pleasant beverage instead of something nasty(or even something that could make you sick). Should be ready in about 2 months.
