What you taste
Expect three flavours, in this order: mint, lemon, then the sweetness of honey. It is a bright blend rather than a heavy one, which is why it suits drinks and light food better than strong cheese or dark bread. Because mint and lemon are both fresh flavours, a small spoonful goes a long way in a cold drink.
Questions
Is this the same as plain honey?
No. It is honey blended with mint and lemon, so it tastes of all three. For honey on its own, try linden honey.
Can I use it in hot drinks?
Yes. Stir a spoonful into hot tea or hot water. Let the drink cool for a minute first so the mint stays fresh.
Does it come in single servings?
Yes, as honey spoons with mint and lemon.
Where the honey comes from
The honey in this blend comes from Lithuania. The mint and the lemon are blended into it.
Keeping it
Protect from direct sunlight. After opening, store in a cool and dry place.
