Honey Syrup

Honey syrup…

It’s not just for cocktails.  You could use this to sweeten tea.  Drizzle it over a buttered biscuit or bowl of oatmeal.  I like it over a small bowl of yogurt topped with granola clusters and nuts.  And, I’ll be testing it out in several recipes to see how translates as a honey replacement.

You could easily make this with a 50:50 mix.  But, this works for me.  For my needs, a honey syrup needs to be pour-able and syrup-y thick… not watery.

Honey Syrup
makes 1 1/2 cups

1/2 cup filtered water, boiled and cooled
1 cup of honey

Use in cocktails, tea, or any place that you’d like to use a pourable honey.  Keep the remainder of your honey syrup chilling in the fridge.

All of my pourable bottles are currently occupied.  Luckily, I have plenty of measuring cups.
