The Sweet Mead

Mead is an ancient beverage made from fermented honey, with a lightly sweet, floral, and fruity flavor. When used in cocktails, it adds depth and an irresistible aroma — without the need for distilled spirits.

👩‍🍳 How to Prepare the Caipimel

  • Add the chilled Salus Bee mead and stir well until the honey is completely dissolved.
4. Add the ice
  • Fill the pitcher with plenty of ice and stir to chill.
5. Adjust the flavor
  • Taste and adjust: if it’s too tart, add a little more honey; if it’s too sweet, squeeze in more lemon.
6. Serve in style

❄️ Serve immediately, nice and chilled!
