If you’re a coffee lover like me, You probably have your favorite way of brewing and enjoying your cup of joe. Maybe you like it black, with milk, or with some flavored syrup. But have you ever tried coffee infused honey?

Coffee infused honey is exactly what it sounds like: honey that has been infused with freshly roasted coffee beans. It’s a delicious way to add some sweetness and flavor to your coffee, without adding any artificial ingredients or refined sugars.

Coffee infused honey is easy to make at home. All you need is some good quality honey and some whole coffee beans. You can use any type of honey you like, but I recommend using a mild one like clover or acacia, so that the coffee flavor can shine through. You can also use any type of coffee beans you prefer, but I suggest using a dark roast for a more intense flavor.

To make coffee infused honey, simply fill a glass jar with honey and add some coffee beans. The ratio is up to you, but I like to use about 1/4 cup of beans for every cup of honey. Then, seal the jar and let it sit in a dark place for at least a week, shaking it occasionally. The longer you let it infuse, the stronger the flavor will be.

After a week, you can strain out the coffee beans and enjoy your coffee infused honey. You can store it in the same jar or transfer it to a squeeze bottle for easy dispensing. You can use it to sweeten your hot or cold coffee, or even drizzle it over some toast or pancakes for a decadent breakfast.

But wait, there’s more! Coffee infused honey is not only delicious, but also has some health benefits. Honey is a natural sweetener that contains antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and other beneficial compounds that may help boost your immune system, fight infections, and soothe sore throats. Coffee beans are also rich in antioxidants, as well as caffeine, which may help improve your mood, energy, and focus.

So, what are you waiting for? Grab some honey and coffee beans and start infusing your own coffee infused honey today. You’ll be amazed by how much flavor and sweetness it adds to your coffee, without any guilt.

But before you go, let me share with you some food pairings that go well with coffee infused honey. Here are some of my favorites:

• Banana bread. The moist and nutty banana bread pairs perfectly with the rich and sweet coffee infused honey. Spread some butter on a slice of warm banana bread and drizzle some coffee infused honey on top. Heaven!
• Yogurt and granola. The tangy and creamy yogurt balances the sweetness of the honey, while the crunchy granola adds some texture and nuttiness. Sprinkle some cinnamon on top for extra flavor.
• Cheese and crackers. The salty and savory cheese contrasts nicely with the sweet and smooth honey, while the crisp crackers add some crunch. Try some brie or goat cheese for a creamy treat.
• Ice cream. The cold and creamy ice cream melts in your mouth with the warm and gooey honey. It’s like having a latte and a dessert in one. Try some vanilla or chocolate ice cream for a classic combo.
