My husband’s favorite Disney character and movie when he was a small boy was The Many Adventures of Winnie The Pooh. And we’ve watched it with each and all of our kids. (And we’ve read them the books, too!)
The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh is out today (August 27) in a new Blu-Ray/DVD Combo Pack. (#DisneyWinnie) There are SO many memorable lines in this classic movie. One of my favorites is the one that talks about how a day without a friend is like a pot without a drop of honey. I thought it would make an awesome printable and a great gift to bring to a friend or neighbor.
And when we were at our city’s farmer’s market last week I found some beautiful raspberries and blackberries, and some local honey. I thought it would be yummy to make berry honey to take to special friends!
Here’s the super simple recipe:
Berry Honey Recipe
Ingredients:
1 pound of berries
1 pound of honey
Mason jars
Directions:
- In a heavy pan, combine honey and berries and bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
- Once the mixture reaches a boil, pour the mixture into a blender and blend until incorporated.
- Then return the mixture to the pan and boil for 2 more minutes, until the berries have softened up into the honey mixture.
- Then pour the mixture through a fine sieve and into canning jars, using a funnel.
- Let the mixture cool and then put the lids on the jars and print and cut out the printables and attach them to the top of the lid.
- Refrigerate the jars and deliver them to your neighbors and friends!!
And here are the printables!

Do you know how long it will last? Do you need to can it? Wasn’t sure with the berries but I can see myself delivering throughout the month of December!

What a great idea for little gifts from our kitchen this holiday (or any time). LOVE your graphics! Instead of framing the quote I think I’ll print it out and put it in a bright yellow envelope … who says yellow isn’t Christmasy if you attach a red or green bow – ha! Thanks for the recipe and the printables.
Cute idea Barb!!

Is there a way to make this without heating the honey? We have honey from our bees and you don’t want to heat because it looses everything that is good for you. And you loose all the benifits of the honey?
Hi Gretchen!!
I wondered about that. I think you totally could make it without boiling the honey. It might make the berries a little less soft. But I think you should try it. I would love to see what you think!

How have I never made flavored honey before??? Going on my must-make list right now!
It is very yummy! My daughter said to me tonight that she wanted to drink the whole jar. So that made me think it was pretty good. haha!!
