Having a jar of this citrus honey to add to water makes it easy to enjoy flavored water throughout the day. You can also add them to tea for a soothing drink to sip on when you’re feeling under the weather.

How To Make Honey Lemon Slices

As the lemon and ginger slices rest in the honey, the honey becomes infused with the flavor of the ginger and juice from the lemon. Add a piece or two of the fruit and ginger with a drizzle of the syrupy honey to a glass of water or a hot cup of tea.

  1. Peel ginger and cut into slices.
  2. Rinse lemons under water then cut into slices.
  3. Layer the citrus and ginger in a mason jar and pour the honey over them.
  4. Squeeze the juice of 1/2 lemon over everything for extra delicious tasting syrup.
  5. Refrigerate to let things marinate for at least an hour.   
  6. Add slices of citrus and ginger and 1-2 heaping teaspoons of the honey syrup to a glass of water or hot cup of tea.
  7. Stir and enjoy.
  8. Store in an airtight container in refrigerator for up to a week.
