Raspberry Mint Honey

Instructions

1. Start by washing the fresh raspberries and mint leaves under cold water. Pat them dry gently with a clean cloth or paper towel.

2. In a saucepan, combine the raspberries and mint leaves. Using a fork or a potato masher, crush the berries to release their juices and muddle the mint leaves to extract their essence.

3. Place the saucepan over low to medium heat and let the mixture simmer for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. This will help the flavors meld together.

4. Once the raspberries have softened and the mixture has thickened slightly, remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool for a few minutes.

5. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl, pressing down on the pulp to extract all the juice. Discard the solids remaining in the sieve.

6. Add the honey to the raspberry-mint juice in the bowl and stir well until fully combined.

7. Carefully pour the Raspberry Mint Honey into a clean, sterilized jar with a tight-fitting lid. Allow it to cool to room temperature before sealing the jar.
