Bee's love the small white orange blossoms and happily drink its nectar in the spring to produce orange blossom honey. The honey is described as sweet with hints of citrus . Florida has large acres of forest and citrus groves a warm climate and provides a great environment for bees to make one of the best honeys in the World.
