Sorghum syrup is very complex and powerful much like buckwheat honey. As a result, I've decided to treat it like buckwheat honey and use 20% Sorghum syrup and 80% orange blossom honey. The resulting mead has a thick mouthfeel with a very complex flavor profile. What is interesting is that the sorghum enhances the orange blossom character. It is a perfect pairing. 

1. Add the following to a 1 gallon carboy:
-10 ounces Sorghum syrup
-2.5 lbs OB honey
2. Add water to halfway. 
3. Add 0.25 tsp KHCO3 and 0.4 tsp Fermaid K. 
4. Add 0.7 tsp Fermaid O. (Add again at 1.090 & 1.050.)
5. Mix thoroughly. 
6. Add water 1/2 cup shy of a gallon. 
7. Mix again. 
8. Pitch a starter of Wyeast 1388. 
9. Once the gravity is below 1.005, add 5.2 ounces of honey. 
10. When the gravity stabilizes, cold crash until clear.
