Firebee Elderberry Honey Review


Welcome to the Honey Review. If you’re new go ahead and subscribe for updates on all my future reviews. I received a new Honey to review out of Mulberry, Kansas. This is the second Firebee Honey I’ve featured on the blog, and I’m super excited to share it. It’s been in constant rotation for my tea’s and breakfast.

Disclaimer:

This is not a sponsored post, I received this set from Firebee in exchange for my honest review.

Firebee has a variety of products in delicious flavors like Elderberry Honey, Peach and for those who like Hot Honey; Firebee’s Spicy Honey. The Spicy Honey is a new favorite for grilling burgers and chicken this summer and this Elderberry Honey has been fantastic in Tea’s, Oatmeal, and other snacks.

About Firebee Honey


Firebee is hand crafted Honey that started as a home passion project. It started as a way to get creative and bring the family together at the dinner table. Incorporating it further by expanding beyond their Steelmade Flat Tops.

The Steelmade Flat top converts a traditional oven into a flat top griddle. It was successful which helped them establish Firebee Honey.

Firebee Honey operates out of Mulberry, Kansas where Bees get great seasonal advantages. This benefits Firebee because Midwest honey yields are often high. Every yard is different, but I’d expect they source their Honey from some very busy bees! This is why they’re able to offer an expansive product line. With so many flavor varieties and enticing infusion blends, Firebee has plenty to go around.

Firebee Honey offers standard flavors and a handful of infused blends as well. All bottles are plastic economical and refillable. They also offer a 19oz glass moonshine style jug for $18.99 or 38oz for $38.99. They’re beautiful.
I recommend these over their plastic squeeze bottles for the additional $6.

Best Pairings for Elderberry Honey

There’s something about the smell of Honey that just makes your mouth water. Firebee’s Elderberry Honey is my go to for Tea and Breakfast. Its great on Toast, in Oatmeal or Tea. It’s also a great substitute for maple syrup as well.

Firebee Elderberry Honey adds a subtle sweetness being too overpowering. Making it perfect to blend into a bunch of different breakfast items or drinks. Consider trying Me & the Bees Lemonade or Green Bee Honey Soda for a tasty beverage options with Honey as well.

Review Summary

I ordered a box of 3 Firebee Honey 12.9oz squeeze bottles from Firebee. The ship time was super fast, and the packing was very secure and safe. Out of the 3 I received, I tried and reviewed the Spicy Honey first.


I’ve had quite some time to try the Elderberry Honey. I’ve used it lots of different ways with drinks and food recipes. I like the Elderberry Honey on Pancakes, Oatmeal or more recently in my Teas. Elderberry Honey is on the sweeter side with a beautiful dark almost purple body. You could mix it with maple syrup if you wanted, but I think it stands as a great replacement as its thicker in texture and has a bold finish and tartness to it.

Which is particularly why I prefer the Elderberry Honey in my Teas. I’ve tried all the Honey Firebee sent for review, Spicy, Cinnamon and Elderberry. They are all great for Teas and Beverages because of the handcrafted flavors they utilize. My favorite out of them is the Elderberry, it just has this nice berry flavor with a little acidity.

If you haven’t tried flavor infused Honey like the Cinnamon or Elderberry on Pancakes, Waffles or Biscuits you’ve got to try it. I’ll always love maple and have it ready, but try it for yourself or even combine both like Tree Hive did.

The only complaint I have is their squeeze bottles. They tend to leak at the top and over time depending on temperature they aren’t as easy to squeeze.
