time.\u00a0Sweet tart taste, calorie content, high sensitivity of bees to chemicals makes this product not only a pleasant addition to tea, but also environmentally friendly, which is especially appreciated in the modern world.\u00a0The only serious negative is a possible allergy to honey.<\/p>\n\r\n\r\n        <!-- see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php -->\r\n        <div
