Notes

Honey simple syrup is a liquid sweetener that exchanges honey for the granulated sugar. The method is similar in that you dissolve the honey into the water on the stovetop. Honey syrup adds sweetness and a more complex flavor. It's also a natural sweetener which is a major plus if you are trying to reduce refined sugars.
