Action:

Orange blossom honey is a white to pale amber colored monofloral honey that is produced by honey bees that collect and convert the nectar found in the flowers of orange trees.

The trees bloom in the spring, giving honeybees an important early source of food after a long winter of living off stored honey.

Orange blossom honey is one of the most popular and widely available monofloral varieties. You can find it on the shelves of most grocery stores – but it’s important to pay attention to whether you’re buying raw or processed honey!

It tastes like traditional honey, but with hints of citrus and a light, refreshing sweetness. In addition to its delicate flavor, it has a thick and rich consistency.

Although orange blossom honey is described as a monofloral honey, it is usually produced by bees that collect nectar and pollen from different citrus trees that bloom at the same time and in the same region.

Honeybees often move to an area where an orange grove is blooming to aid in the pollination process.

When a honeybee collects nectar from an orange blossom, it mixes with an enzyme in the bees' mouths. The enzyme itself is otherwise known as invertase or "bee enzyme," which is secreted by the bee's glands.

Additionally, processing honey can reduce antioxidant levels by up to 30%, making it less effective as a topical wound remedy. For this reason, orange blossom honey should always be purchased raw.
