How to Make It
Preheat the oven to 350°. Spread the mixed nuts on a medium rimmed baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes, or until lightly toasted. Transfer the nuts to a plate. Let cool.
Pour half of the honey into a 12-ounce clear-glass jar or into two 6-ounce jars. Add the nuts and top with the remaining honey. Seal the jar.
For a more intense flavor, replace 1/4 cup of the clover honey with earthy chestnut honey. Replace 2 tablespoons of the toasted nuts with 2 tablespoons of dried cherries or dried currants.
