Southern Belle Honey

Before the White Tupelo starts to bloom, a hodgepodge of other plants all bloom all at once along the Apalachicola River on the panhandle of Florida. Ti-Ti, Black Tupelo, Black Gum, Willow, and other plants produce a dark, quickly granulating honey that is excellent for baking and many teas. We call this resultant wildflower Southern Belle Honey. Surprisingly, this honey has a taste like peaches. Did the bees actually hit peach trees when they produced this honey? We do not know. However, it is surprisingly sweet for such a dark honey, with a rich taste that is not overpowering. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
