Lilacs are not only one of my favorite spring flowers having not only beautiful flowers most spring but also like many flowers have abundant and edible flowers.
A delicious recipe to preserve the aroma and flavor of your lilacs is lilac honey.
To make Lilac honey first get a clear small jar. For your first batch a baby food jar will do fine. Pack the jar with the individual flowers and petals of lilac until full. Now cover the lilac flowers and petals with honey and put the lid on the jar. 
Let the jar settle for a day or so and then pack in more blossoms and cover with honey once more. Continue until the jar is completely full of honey and blossoms, the tighten the lid and let sit.
Stored in your refrigerator until the next winter the lilac honey will preserve the delicate aroma of your lilacs through the dreary days of winter.
When you want a treat take a teaspoon and savor the aroma then enjoy the taste of your honey. As the flavor is quite delicate you will want to either eat the honey by itself or stir it into warm water as a refreshing desert drink
