Ginger Infused Honey

I have talked about all the wonderful benefits of honey.

I have also talked about the benefits of ginger.

Now why not combine them?

I was buying ginger infused honey from my favorite

beekeeper back in Ohio but the price of shipping

just isn't worth it.

So I decided to google how to make my own.

This is going to be the easiest thing you have ever made!

Buying local honey (not store honey) local honey will

also help you with allergies in your area!

That is why you should always buy local.

Now buy a ginger root, peel the ginger like you would a carrot.

Place the ginger root in the jar of honey.

Place your honey in any of your cupboards for 4-6

weeks and then take the ginger root out.

You now have ginger honey, told you it was simple.

Normally this would be a DIY post but because it

has health benefits I figured it would work

well for the health tips page.
