"A drizzle of sweet honey is delicious enough on its own, but even a quality ingredient can be improved upon. We're talking about infusions, using different ingredients to impart unique flavors to honey, the sweetener you enjoy stirring into drinks and mixing into recipes. Whether you prefer the tantalizing combination of dried chilies and honey or an earthier, more herbal-tasting profile in your sweetener, packing honey with ingredients and letting your choices mingle can result in some seriously elevated dishes."
"Earl Grey tea brings a certain sophistication to the sweetener, offering layers of citrus and bergamot with each spoonful. With the infused honey at the ready, you can get to whipping up impressive desserts and drinks without hesitation, as Earl Grey tea pie, martinis, ice cream, and London fog lattes can turn a mundane midweek afternoon into an occasion that feels celebratory."
Earl Grey tea imparts citrus and bergamot flavors to honey when loose-leaf tea is allowed to mingle in the jar for at least a week. Warming honey and whisking in hot tea creates a thinner, syrup-like infusion that mixes easily into drinks and drizzles over brunch dishes. Using tea bags simplifies straining and increases intensity with additional bags. Infused honey pairs well with desserts such as tea pie, ice cream, martinis, and London fog lattes, elevating ordinary moments. Strain infused honey through a fine-mesh strainer before use and refrigerate the syrup to extend its shelf life.
