HONEYSUCKLE SYRUP
Basic simple syrup made with fresh honeysuckles that can be used in countless ways. It tastes like the single drop of nectar you can get from each flower. I like to use it in tea or even just in water as a drink on it's own. It can also be used in pastries or to make ice cream or sorbet. The possibilities are endless. It pairs well with lime, orange, cinnamon, or apple/pears. Just be careful pairing it with stronger flavors as they can quickly overpower it.
