The holiday season is officially here and my sweet tooth is in full force. With the cold weather I’m constantly wanting warm drink to keep my afternoon’s moving at work followed by a sweet treat for the evenings as we wind down with some basketball. Is anyone else as disappointed with Indiana Basketball’s defense this year? Anyways… as much as I would love to have hot chocolate every hour of every day (is there really anything more you could ask for?) to take care of the warm drink and the sweet tooth I started rotating in various forms of tea to help balance out the extra calories the hot chocolate tends to add on.
One problem, the tea did not solve my sweet tooth problem.
I used to keep a jar of honey around at all times to mix in my tea. Nine times out of ten my desk (or cabinet) wound up with a giant sticky puddle of honey since I could never manage to close it all of the way or something got knocked over. Eventually I gave up on honey and started drinking my tea plain.
Recently my entire outlook on honey was changed. I was introduced to Nektar Honey Crystals and suddenly I have invited honey back into my life and back into my tea.
Seriously… Necktar Honey Crystals are “sweet tooth” life changing. At first I was skeptical. How is it possible to have honey with no sticky mess? Isn’t that what honey is supposed to be? I threw the bottle in my lunch bag and decided to give it a chance with my afternoon tea this week.
Not only did it actually taste like honey, it added the sweet flavor my tea has been missing AND there was no mess to clean up afterward.
I’m not kidding, life changing.
Nektar Honey Crystals are all natural, non-gmo and naturally gluten-free. They can be used just like regular honey and come in a bottle you can pour from or individually packets for easy sharing.
1 TSP of Nektar Honey Crystals is just 12 calories, 3 grams of sugar and goes a long way. Drop a teaspoon into your favorite breakfast oatmeal, afternoon tea or even with your cottage cheese snack and you’ll get a sweet addition without the extra guilt.
They are available to buy at your local Walmart or you can learn more about my new favorite honey at the Nektar Naturals website. If you are as excited as I am about them… FitApproach and Nektar are giving away a bottle!

These sounds awesome. No sticky mess and so few calories. Plus, I looked up the store locator, and they have them at Walmart right near me. Perfect. Thank you!

I like the idea of a more “portable” honey. Something you won’t fear will mess up your lunch bag or desk at work. I’m not sure if they sell it in Canada’s Walmarts, but I’m sure to look for it!
Thank you for hosting this giveaway!!! Looks really good!
It really is! I would recommend picking it up!
