Five Fun Facts and the Benefits of Beezy Beez Raw Local Honey

Five Fun Facts and the Benefits of Beezy Beez Raw Local Honey

There is wide knowledge about the benefits of raw honey such as Beezy Beez, but there are many things you probably do not know about bees, honey, and the work bees do in between the production off honey. These Five Fun Facts will surprise you, as well as make great story time the next time you go out and buy a jar of honey.

1. Honey is a preservative. Yes, while the sweet golden liquid of nature is best known for healing wounds and being a nutritious snack, for many years honey has been used as a preservative to preserve the quality of fruits and other perishable items, keeping them fresh longer without the risk of food spoiling, as fruits and vegetables spoil quickly when not stored correctly.

2. Honey bees understand adapting to survive, and in the winter, the bees form in a cluster, and vibrate n unison to help each other survive. This allows them to form a safe spot for the Queen bee as well as the brood bees. They work together to protect one another from the harsh temperature of the Winter season.

3. Honey comes in a variety of flavors, in a wide range from sweet to spicy to floral to fruity, depending on the type of flowers visited by the bees.

4. Honey has an eternal shelf life because it is hygroscopic, which means it absorbs moisture from surrounding air and retains it, aiding in preservation. Honey can outlast any other item in your pantry!

5. Bees are tiny, but very mighty! With their astonishing ability to travel at maximum, lengthy speeds, bees can travel for longer distances than one might assume. To produce one pound of honey, a colony would have to buzz and fly 55,000 miles!

These fun facts can create important conversations in a variety of settings, whether that be during a trip to the grocery store when buying honey, a coffee date with your best friend, or your group of students during afternoon story time. There is a lot to learn about bees and the things they do, and just how amazing they are at their job of making honey and maintaining a tidy environment. When you buy a jar of honey like Beezy Beez, you get the same liquid as in the store, but only Beezy Beez is raw and unprocessed, made with nature's help and free from the sugars and additives found in many over processed and commercialized brands of honey.

When you choose Beezy Beez, you get the same food product, just made with better ingredients!

Try Beezy Beez Honey This Thanksgiving: Honey Glaze Recipe for that Perfect Turkey

When you think about purchasing a jar of Beezy Beez New York Raw Honey, you might begin brainstorming how to incorporate the sweetest of New York’s local food scene into your Thanksgiving dinner. Thanksgiving is a time for family, flavor, fall colors, and who could forget the main attraction of the day- Turkey! As I was browsing ideas for a honey glaze, I spotted a recipe that would be sure to be simple to fix and even amaze your guests. Everyone appreciates a good meal, and because Thanksgiving is approaching, it is best to gather any information on recipes now rather than later. A recipe like this honey glaze will help the turkey be the shining star of your Thanksgiving dinner!


Thanksgiving has been one of my favorite holidays for as long as I can remember, and my parents have been proudly hosting the holiday for more than 30 years, beginning back when they were newlyweds. Every Thanksgiving, my mom starts cooking at 8:00 AM sharp, and my sister and I await the food to be ready. For a while, we channel surf between the exciting Dog Show and NFL Football. When guests arrive, then I assume it’s time for appetizers- which are usually olives, walnuts, cheese and crackers, fresh fruit, or a smorgasbord of italian meats like salami and prosciutto. I try not to fill up on the tasty apps, because I like to save a lot of room for the turkey. It is custom in my house to cook two turkeys, one in the oven, and a second one in a deep fryer which is cooked crispy and golden. I watch and wait patiently for the turkey to be ready. It’s my favorite dish on the menu, with stuffing being a close second. There’s nothing more Thanksgiving than sliced turkey topped with stuffing, drenched in the juiciest gravy. Yum! 


I do want to add, sometimes change is good, even if it’s for a little while. If you feel in the mood to change the recipe this year and swap your traditional turkey for a turkey glazed with Beezy Beez Raw Honey, following these steps will help a lot especially if this is your first time making a honey glazed turkey. 


To make the perfect honey glaze you will need:


1 Cup of 12 oz Beezy Beez Raw Local Honey


2 Cups of Brown Sugar


½ Cup of Dijon Mustard (Any brand that you prefer is fine to use)


2 Tablespoons of unsalted butter


2 Tablespoons of Apple Cider Vinegar


Place your ingredients for the glaze into a medium sized saucepan over medium heat, and bring to a simmer by stirring nicely, breaking up lumpy chunks of sauce, so that the glaze is smooth and shiny. Once the turkey is fully roasted, handle it carefully out of the oven, and baste it with your Beezy Beez Honey glaze. Place the turkey back into the oven uncovered, for 20-30 minutes more. 


Thanksgiving is an important day for me and my family every year, as it’s a gathering of being appreciative of the memories we get to make in life, and giving thanks to one another for their presence, traditions, and unconditional love.


This Beezy Beez Raw Honey glaze is a new addition to your kitchen that you must try, and Beezy Beez New York Raw Honey is available to buy in 2 pounds, 12 ounces, or 1 pound. You can also try a honey glazed turkey with our Hott Honey, or our amazing Original flavor if you are new to our brand.

Beezy Beez Raw Local Honey: Buy It, So You Can Try It!

Beezy Beez Raw Local Honey: Buy It, So You Can Try It!

Beezy Beez Raw Local Honey, produced and manufactured locally in the New York City borough of Staten Island, is a special kind of honey- unfiltered, unprocessed, and packed with vitamins and minerals! Our raw honey is unlike the commercialized kind that is heavily processed where its nutrients are stripped. Beezy Beez Raw Local Honey consists of thousands of enzymes. Upon entry to the human body, enzymes clean out toxins and can help the stomach with digestion, an issue that many people face when it comes to diet and nutrition. Beezy Beez Raw Local Honey is a healthy honey that puts health first, and flavor second while combining the two to produce a sweet, sticky blend of nature’s best ingredients. 


Sustainability is the main source of our health-focused honey. At our manufacturing warehouse in Staten Island, we create honey from healthy bees that are sustainably raised, and well cared for during every step of the raw honey-making process, making sure that our honey comes straight from the hive. We keep a close eye on our trained beekeepers who work as hard as the bees to make our honey, who we trust to preserve the health and safety of our many bees. Our beekeepers, as busy as they remain during hours of production, give our bees the chance to continue pollinating the environment around us. Pollination is what keeps the lush, green terrain and flora healthy, allowing it to thrive. Without bees, there would be no such thing as a healthy plant or pretty flowers. What this means is simple: When you purchase a jar of Beezy Beez Raw Local Honey, you make a good choice that benefits both your health, and the atmosphere. When you protect your health, you also protect the planet. 


There are many benefits to buying Beezy Beez Local Honey as opposed to processed honey:


  1. Your health. I may have told you already, but yes your health will benefit from Beezy Beez Raw Local Honey.

  1. You will be able to help a small business. Plus, buying local food is great for the environment as well as the Staten Island community!

  1. Our honey helps you fight off allergies.

  1. There are a lot of antioxidants in our honey, many of which are found to prevent cancer. 

  1. Healing power: When applied to a burn or a wound, raw honey can be the remedy you just might need.

With so many benefits to this one of a kind honey, Beezy Beez Raw Local Honey should be your first voice if you are shopping for a new honey or just want to try something new. Sustainability is part of our recipe, along with proper care and concern for our bees, and of course, the enzymes and natural aroma that gives our honey its signature taste. Buy a bottle today!

What’s on the Menu? Coffee and Honey

Beezy Beez Honey in Staten Island is nothing like your ordinary coffee shop. It is a factory as well as a hang out for not just coffee lovers, but also those who love to gather. A hidden gem located in the Travis-Chelsea neighborhood of the New York City borough, Beezy Beez is a coffee shop and New York-licensed raw honey manufacturer that is committed to producing the best flavors from the most natural of ingredients. The shop’s raw honey and unique coffee creations its menu advertises consists of a diverse range of flavored brews and variations of raw honey, appealing customers of all kinds, and, if you are a foodie looking to try something new, Beezy Beez is definitely the place to “bee”. 


Beezy Beez produces its well known original Beezy Beez Raw Honey, which is a fan favorite. Unlike processed regular honey, raw honey has nutritional benefits. On the question of raw versus regular honey, what makes raw honey the healthier option? Raw honey is all natural, unprocessed, and does not contain additives such as corn syrup and sugar. Being left unheated and unpasteurized is how raw honey gets its signature flavor and function. Raw honey is healthy honey, and can improve heart health and regulate levels of blood sugar. It has also been found to be rich in antioxidants, which give a person vitamins. Among the variations available to purchase include Original (2 Lb, 1 Lb, or 12 Oz), Black Truffle Honey, True Manuka Honey, and the trendy Hot Honey. With a handful of selections to choose from, customers will be able to find their favorite flavors and more. In addition to its raw honey collection, Beezy Beez has a menu of coffees to try whether you are inside their shop or on the go. 

With coffee being an important meal of one’s day for some, it is true that everyone prefers their coffee differently. Some like a classic, hot cup of black coffee, and others may just like theirs with milk and sugar. Some might not like any coffee at all- but that’s nothing to worry about when there is tea and lemonade! Signature drinks include the Skinny Iggy (an iced skim latte), the fruity and refreshing Berry Bossman, a honey-infused green tea refresher called “Tropic Like It’s Hot” which includes hints of lime and mango, and even the option most fit for the season- the pumpkin-spiced triple espresso known as our “Talk a Latte”.
