Uses for stalled mead? (sopuli.xyz)

Got a few demijohns of mead that stalled, it's like cola for sweetness and if mixed with rum its pretty nice but otherwise it is probably like 3-4%.

What else could I use it for? I think if I drank it all I would get diabetes before I got drunk.

Some things I have tried so far: splash some in a frying pan while frying onions, along with some soy sauce. Soak sultanas in the mead and use them in a steamed syrup pudding.

Use it for back sweetening other mead?

Certainly sweetening other drinks seems like an idea. Maybe more as a mixer than to back sweeten though.
