Ginger Honey Apple Sauce

First, I have to say that I love being a blogger and I love being able to try new products and bring them to my readers.  It makes my day when my readers let me know that they have tried the product on my recommendations.  Today I have a new product for you.
 A short time ago I found a new tea company called Calmer Sutra Tea  through twitter and sent them a tweet that I am a big tea drinker.  I quickly got a reply asking me if I would like to try their teas and in their package they sent me was a jar of Ginger Infused Honey.

Anyone reading my blog knows that I use a lot of ginger in my cooking and I always have ginger root at home so this ginger honey was very intriguing.  It tasted wonderful, the honey has bits of fresh ginger in it, sweet with a little bit of kick... In my tea or just by the spoonful it was wonderful (more on the teas to following in a later post) but I found that it was just as wonderful using in cooking.  As it was Easter I was planning on making ham and decided some fresh apple sauce would go good with it.  I add some Ginger Honey to the apple sauce and it was perfect, giving it just that little bite that it needed.
