We Made MEAD from Canned Pumpkin... Should YOU?

This pumpkin spice mead was made with grocery-store ingredients and a lot of skepticism. We fermented canned pumpkin with honey, raisins, and bread yeast, then spiced it after fermentation for control. The final tasting may surprise pumpkin lovers and skeptics alike.
