Why Should I add Manuka Honey to Drinks instead of Sugar?

Manuka honey has been used by native Australian and Māori cultures for thousands of years and is now under increasing research by scientists across the world for incredible health properties. Modern research has shown that some honeys, like Australian Manuka honey, are many times more active than other types of ‘regular’ honey.
