Flavored Raw Honey as a Gift

Looking for a sweet idea for your loved ones? Homemade flavored honeys are a perfect fit.

• Start with a mild but tasty raw honey like wildflower.
• Stick with local honeys.
• Add your own special twist:
  • You can add mild herbs like lavender and chamomile, or stronger flavors like
    rosemary or mint directly to the jar and let them steep. For a more intense
    flavor, warm the herbs and the honey just slightly in a saucepan then re-jar
    once cooled.
  • The same process works for spices and zest. Warm some honey with lemon or
    orange zest to add some brightness or spices like dried hot peppers or cardamom
    for a more savory twist.
  • Label the jars and adorn with a festive bow.
