Print Recipe

A simple and natural fermented garlic honey recipe that boosts immunity with probiotics and antimicrobial benefits. This slow-fermented blend mellows garlic’s sharpness and infuses honey with powerful health properties.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (340 grams) raw honey (unpasteurized, high-quality like Manuka or local wildflower honey)
  • 10–12 large fresh garlic cloves, peeled and lightly crushed
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon filtered water (if honey is very thick)

Instructions

  1. Peel 10-12 large garlic cloves and crush them lightly with the side of a knife or a garlic press to release allicin (about 10 minutes).
  2. Place the crushed garlic cloves in a clean glass jar.
  3. Pour 1 cup (340 grams) of raw honey over the garlic, ensuring the garlic is completely covered.
  4. If honey is very thick, mix 1 tablespoon of filtered water into the honey before adding it to the jar.
  5. Use a wooden spoon to gently stir and push down the garlic so it’s submerged.
  6. Seal the jar tightly and place it in a cool, dark spot (65–75°F / 18–24°C), avoiding direct sunlight or temperature fluctuations.
  7. Let the mixture ferment for 7 to 14 days, checking daily to release built-up pressure and stirring with a clean wooden spoon.
  8. After about a week, taste to check if the garlic’s sharpness has mellowed and the honey has developed tangy sweetness.
  9. For stronger flavor and probiotic benefits, ferment up to 3 weeks, stirring every other day.
  10. Once fermentation reaches desired taste, store the jar in the refrigerator to slow fermentation; it keeps for several months.
  11. Push down any floating garlic daily to keep it submerged and prevent mold.
  12. Avoid metal lids prone to rust; plastic-lined lids are preferred.

Notes

Do not rush fermentation or heat the mixture to avoid bitterness. Use raw, unpasteurized honey for proper fermentation. Release gas buildup daily by loosening the lid briefly. Keep garlic submerged to prevent mold. Avoid metal lids that can rust. Store fermented honey in the refrigerator after fermentation to slow the process and preserve probiotics. Gentle warming is recommended when adding to tea to preserve probiotic benefits.
