Guest guest Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 I LOVE Honey Jack but NOT in my Earl Grey Tea, Ta very much......we have lovely Honey Downunder but they all have quite distinct flavours depending on what Bush Flowers the bees have been busy amongst! Tasmanian Leathwood....Mallee... Red Gum, Blue Gum, Tea Tree, Banskia, Coastal Heath....Clover of course but even it is too 'strong' for a proper cup of brewed English Tea! 'Fraid only the White Death will do...luckily Stevia Drops don't interfere too much with the Tea Taste! I'm such a Fuss Bum! I love using Pure Canadian Maple Syrup as a substitute fro Brown Sugar on Porridge, Weetbix, Pancakes etc!
