Making Dandelion Honey
Some people make an infusion of Dandelions and then add this to honey. In this method, the flowers are harvested during their short blooming season. The petals are carefully separated from the green parts, and then the flowers are infused in hot water. Afterward, the infused liquid is combined with honey and simmered to create the unique, flavorful Honey infusion.
We prefer pure natural Dandelion Honey harvested by the bees. Authentic Dandelion Honey has the most nutritional benefits and requires no preparation time on your part.
