What makes these honeyed lemons so good?

  • Versatile! You can use both the lemons and the honey once your recipe has sat together for a couple of days! You can eat the lemons and you can also use the flavored honey!
  • This is the perfect combination of sweet and tangy! The sweetness comes from the honey and the lemon brings the tanginess! 
  • There is minimal effort involved in this recipe, but the flavor reward is HUGE! You are going to love using these honeyed lemons! 

Tips and Tricks for honeyed lemons

  • I recommend to slice the lemons very thinly for best results. I sliced my lemons about ⅛-inch thick. 
  • You can use other citrus for this recipe, too. Oranges and limes also work great. 
  • Clean it up! Since you are eating the rind of the lemon, be sure to wash and scrub before slicing. It’s best to use organic lemons if possible. 
  • We like to use a high quality local honey, we feel it enhances the end product. But any honey should work! 
  • Use the honey to spread over toast, biscuits or add to tea!
