Correct, which is why the very first stsbtiuution I list is using agave instead of honey. (Mostly because many of the people I know who would make this wouldn’t think twice about using honey as a sweetener, and don’t usually have agave nectar on hand. Agave is quite a bit thinner in consistency, and somewhat sweeter in taste, so it might also take some experimenting to get it just the way you like it.
