I know its not the real thing but it tastes quite nice HOMEMADE CLOVER HONEY
2 1/2 cups white clover flowers (No green parts)
1 cup red clover flowers (No green parts)
Petals of four wild roses
10 cups sugar
1 teas. alum
3 cup water
Directions:
1. Wash blossoms and drain well.
2. Bring all ingredients except alum to a boil and stir slowly.
3. Add alum and stir 60 times (no more, no less). Turn heat off
Allow to steep for 3 hours.
4. Strain mixture through cheesecloth, reheat to boil and pour into clean sterilized 6 oz containers.
Note: If you use green parts your recipe will taste grassy.
The recipe calls for alum but I,v never been able to find any,so I leave it out. Skip stage 3 if you cant get any. I also use my own rose petals.
