Hummingbird Food

This is for birds, not people!

Ingredients

• 10 oz filtered water
• 5 Tbsp white granulated cane sugar

(4:1 water:sugar ratio)

Do not use brown sugar, unrefined/unbleached sugar, honey, or any other kind of sweetener. These are all bad for hummingbirds.

Unrefined sugar in particular can be high in iron, which is bad.

Procedure

1. Boil water and mix with sugar in a heatproof vessel.
2. While the mixture cools, clean feeder with vinegar. Rinse well.
3. Pour food into feeder.
