Oxymel (, ) is a mixture of honey and vinegar, used as a medicine. Its name is often found in Rennaisance (and later) pharmacopoeiae in Late Latin form as either a countable or uncountable noun. As a countable noun, it is spelled variously as (singular) oxymellus and oxymellis, and plural oxymeli and oxymelli.〔 ==Etymology and recipe== Cato the Elder describes it thus: |Cato, reproduced by Columella |''De Re Rustica'' }} :A wine made from vinegar and honey, which in Greece was called ''oxymel'', (, hence () "oxymel"). It is made thus. Ten pounds of honey with five heminis(?) of vinegar, which will be subsumed. Themison confused oxymel and hydromel. But hydromel wine is made from ''water'' and honey, hence the name. Its name recalls the creation of omphacomel, which is made from semi-dry (sharp ) grapes and sweet honey, hence the name, . Hence what is called ラテン語:''omphalicium oleum'' (HREF="http://www.kotoba.ne.jp/word/11/omphalic oil" TITLE="omphalic oil">omphalic oil" ), from sour olives which in Greek is called (?), and omphacium from grapes, commonly called agreste. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Oxymel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
