So earlier I mentioned something that's pretty inane, but still important to me. That's my sliiight love for all things honey. Strange, probably. But you name it, and if it has honey in it chances are I love it. There's good reasons for it too. As I'm typing this I'm having an iced tea that was brewed with honey made from a local apiary. For anyone who suffers hay-fever or allergies locally made honey can be a blessing. Being made from the available pollens a teaspoon a day for two weeks is the same as a vaccination for your allergies. I'm sure you could look up all the different benefits on your own and be as amazed or underwhelmed as you want.
The point is; alcohols, desserts, breakfasts, sugar substitutes, blah blah blah, it's just good to have a jar handy if you need a snack that's moderately healthy / cheap / or lacking something.
By far though, the best use for the, very literal, liquid gold? Mead. Drink of the ancestors and gods. However, I'll leave you to look that viking tradition up yourself as well.
