I wanted to make ginger mead, and have been searching for recipes.
Now, recipes I find tell me to soak sliced or chopped ginger in water and heat it to get ginger juice, mix it with honey, and so on but I have 4-5 jars of ginger honey, which is simply sliced ginger dipped in pure honey (I make this year round).
I wondered if this can be turned into mead?
I imagined that ginger honey gives stronger ginger flavour than simply boiling ginger in water, because I am waiting longer to extract ginger juice... am I wrong?
