Mead
Mead () is an alcoholic beverage made by fermenting honey mixed with water, and sometimes with added ingredients such as fruits, spices, grains, or hops. The alcoholic content ranges from about 3.5% ABV to more than 20%. The defining characteristic of mead is that the majority of the beverage's fermentable sugar is derived from honey. It may be still, carbonated, or naturally sparkling; dry, semi-sweet, or sweet. The term honey wine is sometimes used as a synonym for mead, although ''wine'' is typically defined to be the product of fermented grapes or certain other fruits, and some cultures have honey wines that are distinct from mead. The honey wine of Hungary, for example, is the fermentation of honey-sweetened pomace of grapes or other fruits. Mead was produced in ancient times throughout Europe, Africa, and Asia, and has played an important role in the mythology of some peoples. In Norse mythology, for example, the Mead of Poetry, crafted from the blood of Kvasir (a wise ...

Fermented Drinks
This is a list of fermented foods, which are foods produced or preserved by the action of microorganisms. In this context, fermentation typically refers to the fermentation of sugar to alcohol using yeast, but other fermentation processes involve the use of bacteria such as lactobacillus, including the making of foods such as yogurt and sauerkraut. Many fermented foods are mass produced using industrial fermentation processes. The science of fermentation is known as zymology. Many pickled or soured foods are fermented as part of the pickling or souring process, but many are simply processed with brine, vinegar, or another acid such as lemon juice. __TOC__ Fermented foods Fermented beans and seeds Fermented cheeses Most cheeses (all but fresh cheeses) are fermented as part of their production. Fermented condiments Fermented creams and yogurts Fermented grains and grain-based foods Fermented fruits and vegetables Fermented meat and seaf ...

Sima (mead)
Sima is a Finnish fermented low level alcoholic drink and soft drink. It is traditionally a form of mead, an alcoholic beverage produced by fermenting a solution of honey and water, although nowadays the honey is usually replaced with different kinds of sugar, mostly syrup, which makes it a sugar wine. The drink also has a very low alcohol content due to limited fermentation. Sima is therefore a sweet sparkling beverage that is mainly seasonal and connected with the Finnish '' Vappu'' festival. It is usually spiced by adding both the flesh and rind of a lemon. Sima is usually accompanied by a ''munkki'' (donut), a ''tippaleipä'' (a special Vappu funnel cake), or a ''rosetti'' ( rosette). The Finnish word ''sima'' is an old name for honey, which Elias Lönnrot used to mean a drink in his epic poetry, the ''Kalevala''.

Intus
''Intus'' was a traditional pre-colonial Filipino alcoholic drink from the Visayas Islands and Mindanao. It was made by boiling sugarcane juice until it reduces to a thick syrup. It was then allowed to cool and mixed with the bark of the ''kabarawan'' tree ('' Neolitsea villosa'') and fermented. The word ''intus'' (or ''initus'') means " reduced" or "liquid thickened by boiling", from the Old Visayan verb ''itus'' ("to reduce"). Like the ''kabarawan'' drink, ''intus'' is extinct. The tradition was lost during the Spanish colonial period of the Philippines. Among the Lumad people of Mindanao, ''intus'' was flavored with ''langkawas'' (''Alpinia galanga'') or ''pal-la'' (''Cordyline fruticosa'') roots. See also *Kabarawan *Basi *Palek ''Palek'', also known as ''paleg'' or ''mineovaheng'', is a traditional Filipino alcoholic drink from the Batanes Islands made from fermented sugarcane juice.

Kabarawan
''Kabarawan'' was a traditional pre-colonial Filipino mead-like alcoholic drink. It was made from boiling the ground up aromatic bark of the kabarawan tree ('' Neolitsea villosa'') until it was reduced to a thick paste. It was then mixed with an equal amount of honey and fermented. It was traditionally consumed from jars with reed or bamboo straws. The wine was mentioned by early Spanish colonists as being made by the Visayan people. However, the tradition has been lost in modern times. ''Kabarawan'' tree bark is also used to flavor other types of native wines, like ''intus'' and ''basi'', which are both made from sugarcane juice.

Alpinia Galanga
''Alpinia galanga'', a plant in the ginger family, bears a rhizome used largely as an herb in Unani medicine and as a spice in Arab cuisine and Southeast Asian cookery. It is one of four plants known as "galangal". Its common names include greater galangal, lengkuas, and blue ginger. Names The name "galangal" is probably derived from Persian ''qulanjan'' or Arabic ''khalanjan'', which in turn may be an adaptation of Chinese ''gao liang jiang''. Its names in North India are derived from the same root, including ''kulanja'' in Sanskrit, ''kulanjan'' in Hindi, and ''kholinjan'' in Urdu. The name "lengkuas", on the other hand, is derived from Malay ''lengkuas'', which is derived from Proto-Western Malayo-Polynesian ''*laŋkuas'', with cognates including Ilokano ''langkuás''; Tagalog, Bikol, Kapampangan, Visayan, and Manobo ''langkáuas'' or ''langkáwas''; Aklanon ''eangkawás''; Kadazan Dusun ''hongkuas''; Ida'an ''lengkuas''; Ngaju Dayak ''langkuas''; and Iban ''eng ...
