You mean the Brits don't put honey in tea? I love Tea and honey. We have this raw honey called Buckwheat honey, it's really dark and kind of gritty, but it's great when you have a sore throat. Garlic is too. I will often mix the buckwheat honey and the garlic and eat it. There's no better man deterrent then mixing honey and raw garlic and eating in front of your Husband. It's even better when I have a cold and look terrible and have my Mickey Mouse PJ'S on. I sit in my bed with my tissues and smelly garlic and tea and ask in my stuffed up congested voice, Do I look sexy? Uh sure.
