Using Crystallized Honey in Hot Beverages
Crystallized honey is not spoiled; it's simply honey that has undergone a natural process. The good news is that it is still completely edible and can be used just like liquid honey. According to our reference, "you can stir the honey right into your hot coffee or tea". The crystals will melt easily in the heat, making it just as enjoyable as liquid honey in your tea.
How to Use Crystallized Honey in Tea:
- Spoon it in: Take a spoonful of crystallized honey and add it directly to your hot tea.
- Stir Well: Stir the tea until the honey crystals have completely dissolved.
- Enjoy: Once melted, the crystallized honey will sweeten your tea as expected.
