Moonlight Honey
Raw honey infused with the calming powers of Lavender and Chamomile. Perfect for sweetening evening tea or slathering on toast.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Raw Honey (local is best)
  • 2 tbsp Dried Lavender buds
  • 2 tbsp Dried Chamomile flowers

The Process

The Concept: Honey is an excellent preservative and solvent. It pulls the aromatic oils from the flowers while preserving their medicinal qualities.

Instructions:
1. Combine: Place the dried flowers in a clean, dry glass jar.
2. Pour: Pour the honey over the herbs. The herbs will want to float, so use a clean spoon to push them down and stir to remove air bubbles.
3. Infuse: Cap the jar and place it in a sunny window for 2 weeks. The gentle solar heat helps the infusion. Turn the jar upside down once a day to mix.
4. Enjoy: You can strain the herbs out by warming the honey slightly (do not boil!), or simply leave them in and eat the candied flowers along with the honey.
5. Uses: Stir into warm milk before bed for deep sleep, or drizzle over oatmeal.
