Why enjoy Manuka Honey every day?
Just like brushing our teeth, spending time outdoors and taking exercise, we all know the benefits of creating a healthy routine that leaves us feeling and looking great. With its many benefits, taking a daily dose of Manuka Honey is a great habit to get into. Here are just a few ways you can incorporate it into your daily routine as part of a healthy, balanced diet:
1. Take it daily by the spoonful
There’s no sugar coating this one – and there’s no need to! Simply enjoy Comvita Manuka Honey straight from the jar by the spoonful. Take it during your daily meditation, with your breakfast or before your workout. The recommended serving size is one tablespoon. It’s so easy to get into the habit of enjoying it every morning or evening.
2. Enjoy it in your tea or coffee
Instead of reaching for the sugar, sweeten your tea or coffee with a teaspoon of Comvita Manuka Honey. It’s a particularly delicious natural sweetener in green tea, chai tea and other herbal teas.
3. Use it in your recipes as a sweetener
Manuka Honey is beloved by nutritionists and dietitians as a wonderful, natural alternative to refined sugars, with an extra nutritional boost. Get a drizzle of its superpowered benefits by using it in baking instead of refined sugar, or as a glaze on baked salmon or chicken.
4. Blend it into a smoothie
Sweeten your favourite shake or smoothie with a touch of Manuka Honey. Try this Banana & Manuka milk shake recipe created for Comvita™ by Megan May, Founder & Creator of Little Bird Organics and the Unbakery Cafe, New Zealand.

Ingredients
Directions
Place everything in a high-speed blender and blend until smooth. This is a little icy and thick when blending but just keep blending, as the ingredients will warm up a little and start to blend well. I like to keep it thick and have the kids eat it with a spoon like ice cream on a hot summer’s day.
Comvita Manuka Honey is a popular and delicious addition to smoothies, juices, tea and other drinks – just remember not to use boiling water in hot drinks.
5. Slather it on your face or body
In case you didn’t already know this skincare secret, clean-beauty experts recommend Manuka Honey for clear, glowing skin. Known for its antibacterial and antimicrobial properties, a regular application of Manuka Honey on acne-prone or dry skin can help lock in moisture and balance pH levels in your skin.
