Notes

No Boil. Add Honey, Brewed Black Tea, Apple Juice, and Raisins to fermenter until Honey is completely dissolved. Add yeast nutrient and yeast and let sit for 2 weeks or until fermentation is complete. Cold crash and rack mead into a secondary container and then add 1-2 cinnamon sticks and apple juice to back sweeten. Keep cold so fermentation does not start again. Bottle the mead and pasteurize at 150 degrees F for 10 minutes or keep refrigerated.
