I have found that the word definition Hydromel used in many websites (mostly in US) is wrong.
Hydromel is not a variation of mead and is not watered mead!
Hydromel is the French word for Mead like the Portuguese word Hidromel, the Spanish word Hidromiel and the Italian word Idromele. All have the origin in the Latin word Hydromeli.
I would appreciate to not see the word used improperly. the term is very old and exists in regions that make mead since forever .
This is a mead related website (excellent by the way) and i ask to Vicky Rowe if it's possible to correct this definition in the glossary.
