An other mead aberration, for science!
This looks either tasty or abhorrent. Whatâs the recipe?
Bought some gatorade powder you can see in the photo. The recommended serving is 4 tablespoons for 750 mL of gatorade. I used around half of that, which is 10 spoons for 4 L (orange) and 10 spoons for 3 L (blue). ChatGPT recommended a quarter, but I was afraid it wouldnât taste anything. Iâm also pretty confident he never tried it anyway, so who cares about the computerâs opinion. Then itâs a standard 1 kg of honey each and EC-1118 yeast with some nutrient for the road (I realize now that I might have put way too much of it, but I think theyâll manage).
Both were extremely sweet before the fermentation. I have doubts about the blue one, but high hopes for the orange one (this is no political statement btw). I actually have no idea how it will come out, but right now theyâre both bubbling nicely.
Iâll be curious how it turns out.
Iâve never made mead, so Iâm intrigued.
Have you looked into âskeeter peeâ recipe? Iâve got ~22L of that fermenting currently.
Heâs a madman! Very creative
I feel like Iâd rather just try this using table sugar instead of (probably) throwing honey down the drain.
There is no âtrying thisâ by just doing a regular mead. The point is to give it an unusual flavor.

Nope, but I canât expect to be the only one with good taste!

Gatorwine is a thing that the internet has made known. Itâs a mix of wine and blue Gatorade. Babish mixed some up as part of an âI do your suggestionsâ episode.
Turns out that it isnât as horrible as it would seem. To the contrary, he liked it and did a second episode mixing up more varieties. So now itâs a thing everywhere since heâs fairly popular.
