Cafe de Olla mead
I started this coffee mead about a month ago and it reached 1.00 today. 5.5 lbs of bochet honey, 5 lbs of wildflower honey, 4 gallons of spring water and 64 oz of Trader Joe’s cold brew coffee concentrate. The last time I made this I added piloncillo (unrefined cane sugar), lots of lactose, vanilla and cinnamon. Not sure if I’ll use as much lactose this time, got some negative feedback from judges, or I’ll just do whatever I want lol. The inspiration behind this mead is Mexican coffee aka Cafe de Olla. Stay tuned, though the judges didn’t like it, I ran out at the festival I served it at.
