How to Make the Best Honey Simple Syrup (aka Liquid Honey)
Honey is one of nature’s most versatile sweeteners, but when it crystallizes or becomes thick and hard to pour, it can be frustrating to use. This honey simple syrup is the perfect solution—it transforms stubborn honey into a smooth, pourable liquid that’s easy to mix into any recipe.
Whether you’re drizzling it over pancakes, whisking it into a salad vinaigrette, or stirring it into your morning tea, liquid honey incorporates seamlessly without leaving behind clumps or sticky residue. The simple syrup consistency makes it especially ideal for cold drinks where regular honey would sink to the bottom.
This quick technique takes just a few minutes and requires no special equipment—just warm water and a squeeze bottle. It’s a practical kitchen hack that ensures you always have smooth, mixable honey ready to go whenever inspiration strikes.
