This is a really cool project. A few months ago, I posted a similar article, and that went down really well. A lot of you commented on how yummy and easy it is to make.
Well, over at PrepperLink.com, they have an even easier and cheaper method to make mead. Great for the winter months that are coming up.
The good thing about this recipe is that you don’t need special equipment, and if SHTF alcohol is in high demand, we could all use some away time if it does.
This could be a great barter item to have stockpiled, and if you want to save a lot of money, this will save you at least 5 bucks per bottle on your wine.
Note: It is illegal to distill drinking alcohol in many countries, including the US.
According to the TTB, US Federal law strictly prohibits individuals from producing distilled spirits at home, so only use this recipe for reference purposes.
Unless, of course, it is the end of the world as we know it and the federal government is not functioning.
This is a great skill to know and master for a SHTF situation, as alcohol could be used for barter and, naturally, entertainment.
