tupolo honey.

I first heard the term because of that delightful Van Morrison song.
I didn't know then that tupelo was a tree. Later I learned that Elvis
Presley was born in Tupelo, Miss. and I assumed that was the
connection, a love song about a southern girl. I didn't know more
about where the honey came from until much later and I still haven't
had a taste of it. I am familiar with orange blossom honey and,
closer to home, apple, buckwheat, fireweed and goldenrod honey.

And people also flavour sugar syrups with flowers ...

MMMMM

The ratio of sugar to water sound wrong to me. When I make cocktail
syrups I generally use a 1:1 ratio up to 3:2.


Cheers

I did not know it was a tree either until a recent tour we went on. We
were with a local guide on a swamp boat in Louisiana. There were two
types of trees there, cypress and tupelo.
