Ingredients:
• Water
• Honeycomb with residual honey
• Cinnamon
• Orange peel
• Anise
Production Process:
• Honeycombs are soaked in hot water to dissolve honey, pollen, and propolis.
• The liquid is filtered for smoothness, then boiled with cinnamon, orange peel, and fennel for flavor and thickening.
• The syrup is cooled and packaged in convenient 80 ml tubes.
This method ensures no byproduct is wasted, resulting in a flavorful syrup rooted in Portuguese tradition.
Cultural Significance
Água Mel is a cherished part of Portuguese gastronomy, deeply tied to rural beekeeping traditions. It highlights sustainable practices, serves as a versatile sweetener, and occasionally acts as a natural remedy for colds.
Why Água Mel is Unique
• Rooted in Portugal’s artisanal and sustainable beekeeping heritage.
• Distinct flavor enhanced by spices like cinnamon and orange peel.
• Strong cultural ties to Portugal’s rural traditions.
Though similar honey-based syrups exist elsewhere, they often lack the same traditional identity and cultural significance, making Água Mel a truly distinctive Portuguese creation.
