honeysuckle honey




Kiss me, honey, honey, kiss me ...




Honeysuckle flowers surprisingly late in the year and with this beautiful Indian summer the flowers are pristine and ripe for the picking. Pick a few blooms - say about a dozen - and immerse them in a jar of honey. Set the jar in the sun for a couple of weeks on a south-facing windowsill. Strain off and you will have a perfect cough syrup ready for the colds and flu season. And it will taste yummy too.
