Got a few demijohns of mead that stalled, it’s like cola for sweetness and if mixed with rum its pretty nice but otherwise it is probably like 3-4%.

What else could I use it for? I think if I drank it all I would get diabetes before I got drunk.

Some things I have tried so far: splash some in a frying pan while frying onions, along with some soy sauce. Soak sultanas in the mead and use them in a steamed syrup pudding.

    never did mead but from what i know issues might be high osmotic stress and low nutrients. I’d dilute a sample to about 16 brix, not higher, maybe lower, add nutrients and yeast and try to restart the fermentation. if you really want to get that high an abv add the undiluted stuff in batches after a couple of days. this way the osmotic stress is at a minimum.
