Celebrate the Weekend

If you’re looking for a fun beverage to celebrate the weekend you may consider MEAD! Have you heard of it?

Mead is an alcoholic drink made from fermented honey and water. Some call it honey wine. It’s also the most ancient fermented drink, discovered when rainwater flooded a beehive and naturally fermented with airborne yeast.

Some say the term “honeymoon” originated in medieval times when newlyweds would drink mead for a full moon cycle at the start of their marriage for the promise of many children.


Mead is also known to be a choice of drink for royalty! Queen Elizabeth even has a favorite recipe with rosemary, thyme, bay leaves and sweet briar.

For a fun experience go check out the mead tasting room at Savannah Bee Co. There are several around the country, so you don’t have to wait until your next trip to Georgia!
