If all else fails, you can always reach for the dry sugar (white or brown sugar) on your shelf. It is sweet, dissolves well, and is best used as a substitute in a 2:1 ratio. That is two spoons of white sugar for a spoonful of honey. To compensate for the liquid part of honey, add ¼ cup of liquids (as simple as water) to 1+¼ cups of sugar, for every cup of honey.
