Can honey be added to wine?

Yes, there is a kind of wine called mead.

Honey wine is a kind of wine. Honey is diluted with water and fermented to produce alcohol. The sugar content of honey is extremely high, and the extremely high osmotic pressure makes it difficult for microorganisms to reproduce. After honey is diluted with water, the sugar concentration decreases, and yeast can reproduce under appropriate osmotic pressure and start fermentation.

Even if honey is only diluted with water, it can make dormant natural yeast fall into honey in the air for reproduction and fermentation. But artificially adding yeast can reduce the chance of failure.

Extended data

As a pure natural health care product, mead takes pure natural honey and mineral water as raw materials, and has a unique high-temperature fermentation process without adding any other substances. The color, aroma and taste of wine are naturally formed, with unique taste, rich flavor, slightly sweet and mellow.

In terms of nutritional value, the determination of nutritional components of honey wine shows that honey wine contains 17 kinds of essential amino acids and physiologically active substances, such as glucose, fructose, VA, ve and minerals, among which amino acids, VE, fructose and minerals such as sodium, calcium and phosphorus are relatively high. From the metabolic process of these physiologically active substances, this paper expounds the health care function of honey wine to human body.
