A Warm Drink for the Chilly Spring Days!

Mixing together a little PassionHoney, lemon, and hot water is very soothing when you are feeling a little under the weather or even just if you need a hot drink. Our whole family loves this tangy combination of the PassionHoney and Lemons together!

CranHoney Vanilla Granola

Preheat the oven to 250 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

In a large bowl combine Oats, Cashews, Almonds, Coconut, and Salt. Mix well and set aside.

In a smaller bowl, whisk together CranHoney, Oil, and Vanilla.

Pour the CranHoney mixture onto the dry ingredients until evenly coated. Evenly spread out the granola on the baking sheet with parchment paper.

Place in the oven for 1 Hour. Stir every 15 minutes so that it evenly bakes. When the granola is done, it should come out a golden color. Once it is cooled, add in the dried cranberries. Mix together and serve.



If you like Greek yogurt, add some of the granola on top and drizzle with a little more CranHoney for added taste!
