Need an easy homemade gift idea? 

It doesn't get any easier than infused honey.  Delicious, creative, and powerful medicine.  Here's what we've been doing this week:

1. Start by filling a clean mason jar about 1/3 full of herbs of choice.  Be creative!
Here we chose a mixture of cinnamon, ginger, orange peel, cardamon, clove, allspice, and black pepper.
Mmmmm....warming digestive herbs.

We made another batch with lavender, chamomile, and lemon balm.  I feel more relaxed just thinking about a cup of tea with this to sweeten it.

2. Get a nice big jar of local honey.  Our 5 lb. jar here filled about 2 mason jars.

Still following me?  I know, it's complicated.

3. Pour honey over herbs until the jar is full.  Place in a sunny windowsill for about 2 weeks.  Strain and pour into pretty bottles. 

Be sure to save some for yourself. :)

Your sweet gift is sure to be a big hit.






Be Well!
