Is this totally safe to drink?

[NoobAtThis]

Hi, me and some friends decided to try make some mead. We wanted to do it as cheaply as possible. We know that it will properly be horrible. Therefor we used normal 1,5 liter soda bottles (Coca Cola and Pepsi max), normal baking yeast and just regular honey. We did buy and use airlocks.
For the first bottle we used:
400 grams honney
13 grams of yeast
Cinnamon sticks (many, like 8 or something)

For the second bottle we used:
650 grams honney
13 grams of yeast
Some ginger

So my question is just: Is this totally safe to drink? We washed everything we used, and boiled the water, and dipped all tools in boiling water. It is properly not sterile... Will it be harmful or what is the worst outcome? Is the worst scenario a bit of diarrhea, throwing up or a hurting stomach?
What do you think?

Thank you everyone for the answers!

If you sanitised well enough, it will be safe enough to drink. The worst case is like, botulism, but unlikely.

When you make a wild mead using whatever yeast is present, the advice is to:
1. Eyeball it. If it has obvious chunks of mold on it, don't drink it
2. Smell it. If it smells off, like sulfur or rotten eggs, don't drink it.
3. Take a sip. This one is obvious, but let your taste buds tell you if it's poison or not. It might taste rough, like jet fuel, but shouldn't be revolting.

You can also measure pH, as a high pH is a tell that it's spoiled. But that might be beyond you haha.
Another indicator is fermentation. If it's fermented for a week or two with bubbling in the airlock, the alcohol helps make it safe, especially above 12%.

In a nutshell if it looks and smells alright it's almost certainly safe.
