A friends mom and dad have bees. A few years ago, while dad was spinning the honey, he got crazy with a garden hose... Some water got in the honey. They bottled it up. It fermented a little. It is runny for honey. I have a 3.9# in a gallon jug with bread yeast. OG is 1.130.
I have about 1 gallon of this runny, funny honey left. Any suggestions or recipes?
By the way funny as amusing... ;-)
 
If you already have bread yeast going, you could do a batch of JAOM...It's more or less a cookie-cutter recipe and easy to do. Makes decent mead. Not gonna be a show-stopper, but decent enough.
 
JAOM is Joe's Ancient Orange Mead. The recipe can be found here.

Do you have any berries, or access to any berries, fresh, frozen, or dried?

You can whip up your own recipe fairly easily using @ 5lbs fresh fruit per pound for a fruit heavy taste.
Or if you can get your hands on some dried elderberries, they are fantastic in mead as well.

I personally don't care for JAOM, but yes, it is an easy recipe. For the fuss though, I might as well make something I will like.
