Hey guys, my first post here so dont be cruel
I need to do a Lily of the valley tasted mead for a present..
I cannot use true flowers since those are poisonous from what I heard.
So my idea was to use flawored tea. I have found some what-I-heard know tea Darjeeling FTGFOP1 which supposebly has some strong Lily flawor and also some "just-tea" one..
My idea was to use both, half in primary - water and leaves, and half in secondary - probably just the water.
Probably like 2-3 tbsp of tea each time..
Also I would use 1 part honey for 2 parts water..
Or maybe use more honey so that I can use more tea?
Any ideas / tips conserning this?
You think this would work and the taste would be there?
