Tea drinkers ditch sugar for ‘absolutely delicious’ alternative that comes in four flavours

Melora’s Squeezy Manuka Honey range is said to be a ‘simple, natural upgrade’ for tea lovers looking to cut refined sugar

Shoppers are abandoning sugar in their tea for an alternative that’s being praised as ‘absolutely delicious’ and ‘so healthy’. With National Tea Day falling on April 21, Melora is highlighting its Squeezy Manuka Honey range , which can sweeten tea in a more guilt-free way.

As increasing numbers of people seek to cut back on refined sugar in their diet, Melora’s Squeezy Manuka Honey range is described as a ‘simple, natural upgrade’. The brand uses New Zealand manuka honey – a powerhouse ingredient that’s claimed to offer anti-inflammatory and gut-friendly benefits.

Melora’s products come conveniently packaged in squeezy bottles for easy use, with various flavours available. All costing £14.99, there’s the Melora Squeezy Manuka Honey (Plain or Ginger), which is billed as ‘the everyday essential’.

It dissolves effortlessly into tea, with the plain variety being ideal for those wanting a sweet boost to their brew, while the ginger provides a warming kick and works particularly well with black tea or herbal blends. The blueberry variety is claimed to be ‘enjoyed beyond the cup’. It can be drizzled over a warm scone, toast or crumpet alongside a cuppa and can deliver a ‘subtly fruity sweetness’ to whatever it graces.

Finally, there’s the lemon variety, which delivers a zesty citrus boost and pairs beautifully with hot water or green tea. If these all sound tempting, customers can snap up the Intense Squeezy Breakfast Mixed Flavour Pack for £45, reduced from £59.96, which contains all four varieties, bringing the cost down to £11.25 per bottle.

Melora’s Squeezy Manuka Honey collection has earned impressive reviews from buyers online. One customer commented: “This is the nicest honey ever… highly recommended.”

Another wrote: “This honey is absolutely delicious and so healthy. Most tops are difficult to get undone on squeeze bottles, but this is so easy to undo.”

Some customers offered minor criticisms, with one shopper noting: “This is a good addition to my porridge every morning, easy to squeeze out, although the ginger flavour is very subtle. When the bottle is nearly empty, just put hot water in, swirl it around and drink. It’s lovely! The bottles have got smaller over the years, and Melora seems to have stopped producing the cinnamon version, but delivery is really quick.”

On the whole, most shoppers were satisfied, with one commenting: “You just can’t beat this honey for flavour. . . . Absolutely delicious.”

Melora’s Squeezy Manuka Honey range provides an array of flavours to select from.
