Notes

  • Make sure to mix room-temperature ingredients for best results.
  • Don't use raw honey, make sure to use a pourable/runny type of honey.
  • Sweeten and add salt to taste. 
  • Don't freeze leftovers in a glass container, as glass expands as it gets cold and may burst. 
  • Feel free to mix in additional flavors like ground cinnamon or spices, vanilla, lemon zest, and even hot honey instead of regular honey.
