Tej Ethiopian Honey Wine Recipes

CLASSIC ETHIOPIAN HONEY WINE

Classic Ethiopian Honey Wine image

Tej, or tejj, is an Ethiopian sweet wine, similar to mead, that is typically made from fermented honey and a special kind of hops called gesho. It is traditionally served from a vase-like vessel called a berele. If you can't find tej or mead in your neighborhood, this recipe is a rough approximation. I tried this once at an Ethiopian wedding and it's quite delicious! Enjoy!
