Why does honey turn into a brown-red paste when the weather is hot?

The cause of honey discoloration is generally related to storage temperature and storage time.

The color of honey will change if it is stored for a long time, because the reducing substances in honey will slowly oxidize, further promoting the color of honey to deepen, which is a normal natural change. Generally speaking, honey stored in high temperature environment is more likely to darken, so honey will turn brown-red after hot weather.
