Does anyone have experience making mushroom honey? (lemmy.world)

Tried making some blue honey for the first time yesterday! Just went with a small jar for a test run.

Ok so here’s my math on the weights- 3 fluid ounces = 18 teaspoons. 3 fluid ounces of honey weighs approx. 4.5 ounces, or 127 grams.

I ended up putting 120g honey in that little jar, along with 11.5g ground dried cubensis.

Assuming I indeed have 3 fluid ounces or 18tsp of honey, if I divide 11.5 by 18, that would make approx .64 grams per teaspoon.

So that’s about what I was aiming for, but it looks like a jar of doodoo lol. It was also getting pretty thick when mixing. I’m happy, but it definitely doesn’t look like the pictures I see online! Anyway, has anyone else tried this? What’s your recipe/ratio?

Hmm, very interesting! I might have to make a batch and try it out!

Give it a shot! Once the mushrooms are in the honey they don’t degrade, so it seems like a great way to use up shrooms that pile up after grows :)

How did it workout?

Good! Still not sure if my math is on the up&up, but it’s great in tea. I think it’s a great way to preserve your yields
