Honey Infusions

Mark bought a quart of honey and a bunch of tiny jars to make spicy honey from his impressive crop of hydroponic chili peppers. Since I’m not a lover of spicy foods I tried making lavender infused honey.

The results were tasty but I couldn’t find a tea that didn’t mask the lavender flavor.

Next I tried making a honey infused with cinnamon. The aroma was heavenly and the flavor was divine. But I left it cooking too long so it caramelized. While it is delicious, it’s very hard to get caramelized honey out of tiny mason jars. I found putting the little jar in the microwave for 10 seconds solves that problem.
