1. In a medium bowl, combine the softened butter, honey, citrus zest, and sea salt. Mix until well blended and evenly incorporated.

2. Transfer the Citrus Blossom Butter to a sheet of parchment paper or plastic wrap. Shape into a log and roll up, twisting the ends to seal.

3. Refrigerate the butter for at least 2 hours, or until firm.

4. Slice and serve the Citrus Blossom Butter on warm bread, scones, or use it as a glaze for baked goods.

Notes

– The Citrus Blossom Butter can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or frozen for up to 3 months.
