Notes

1 can of Cream Soda

Gelatin Fining

Campden Tablets

Potassium Sorbate

Steps

Prepare as normal traditional mead, just honey, water, and yeast.

4 weeks later, rack into secondary on top of the Strawberries and Cream Soda (as in, pour the cream soda into the secondary and have the tube run the mead over it while racking, this will effectively mix it in). Put in the Clearing agent and Campden and PS tablets. Let sit for another 4 weeks or longer.
