Hawaiian Honey!
Our Hawaiian honey comes from the Island of Hawaii and is certified organic by the Hawaiian Organic Farmers Association. We have two kinds of Hawaiian honey: Lehua honey comes from the blossoms of the Ohia Tree and Christmas Berry honey from the flower of the Christmas Berry tree. Lehua is sweet and thick and Christmas Berry is dark and thin, more traditional than the Lehua. Our Spicey Lemon Honey is Lehua honey whipped with certified organic cinnamon, ginger and essential lemon oil. My personal favorite. Great in coffee or tea!
The purest honey in the world comes from Hawaii. It is the only place on our planet where the honey bees have not been infected with mites.
Mites must be treated or they will destroy the hive. Some beekeepers are not very ethical how they treat their mites and use harmful chemicals that make their way into the honey we eat, instead of more natural and less harmful methods that take more time and are more expensive.
There are many uses for Ambrosia and Hawaiian Honey:

There are many uses for Ambrosia and Hawaiian Honey:
- Spread on toast
- Peanut butter and Ambrosia sandwiches - yum yum
- Mix with plain yogurt
- Blend with fruit smoothies
- Pour over hot cereal
- As a topping over ice cream or frozen yogurt (tip: bring a pot of water to a boil - turn the heat off and place Ambrosia in the water for just a few minutes until its very creamy and then pour over your ice cream. Ambrosia then hardens a bit and has a caramel-like texture. Its soooo good!!
- How about a banana split made with low fat frozen yogurt and topped with Spicy Ginger Ambrosia and chopped walnuts
- Mix with olive oil and balsamic vinegar for a sweet vinaigrette dressing
- As a healthy sweetener for tea (do not pour boiling water over Ambrosia - add it to your tea when it has cooled down a bit to avoid destroying the nutrients).
- My favorite - spread on hot baking powder biscuits - especially the kind they make in the deep South.
"I ABSOLUTELY LOVE and crave this stuff! For over 25 years I have been on the health food path and know that local bee products are wonderful for the body, mind, and spirit. I am happy that the Sunflower bee products are organic. I FEEL GREAT! Thank you for your dedication to helping preserve the local bee population."
