Lavender Green Apple Honey Sticks: Crisp, Tangy and Lunchbox-Ready Save

Most honey is mellow. Our Lavender Green Apple Honey Sticks are the exception, with a crisp, tangy green apple flavor that tastes a bit like a sour apple candy that went to finishing school. Snip the end of a straw and you get a bright burst of fruity sweetness.

Who will love green apple

This is the flavor for people who like a little tang with their sweet. Kids tend to go for it first in a mixed bowl, and it is a fun surprise for adults who expect honey to taste only like honey.

Snack and lunchbox ideas

  • Lunchboxes: one stick is a tidy, mess-free sweet next to a sandwich.
  • Apple slices and peanut butter: a squeeze of green apple honey doubles down on the apple.
  • Yogurt cups: stir into plain yogurt with granola.
  • Hikes and ballgames: they ride along in a pocket or pack, no jar or spoon required.

In drinks and frozen snacks

Green apple brightens a cup of green tea or a glass of iced tea. For a summer project with kids, squeeze a few into a lemonade base and freeze it into pops; our Lavender Rainbow Ice Pops are a fun template. It also adds a tart twist to From-Scratch Lavender Honey Lemonade.

Party favors and gifts

Bright green sticks look great mixed with purple and gold ones in a clear jar. Tie a few together with ribbon and a name tag for place settings, or tuck them into goody bags. For a full gift, pair them with tea in the Gift Box Builder. Every flavor is on the combined listing below.

Storage and handling

Store at room temperature, somewhere dry and out of direct sun. Honey can firm up in a cold car or crystallize over time; warm the stick in your hands or a cup of warm water and it will flow again.

Frequently asked questions

Is it sour?

It is tangy and crisp, not mouth-puckering. The honey keeps it sweet.

Are honey sticks safe for toddlers?

Honey should not be given to infants under 12 months. For older little ones, snip the end for them and supervise, as with any small snack.

How do I open one without scissors?

Fold the tip back and forth a few times until it tears, or bite gently near the end.
