- In a small saucepan combine the honey and water.
- Bring to a low simmer over medium low heat, stirring constantly until the honey dissolves into the liquid. Add the thyme leaves and set aside to steep for 30 minutes.
- Strain the simple syrup, through a mesh strainer to catch any thyme leaves or detritus. Cover and refrigerate the honey syrup until cold.
