Brush meat with reserved marinade two or three times while cooking. Chop meat with a cleaver into bite-size pieces. Fold into warm flour tortillas and serve with pico do gallo.

SOPAPILLAS

4 cups flour
1 tbsp. baking powder
2 tsp. sugar
1-1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 cup lard (shortening)
1-1/4 cups water (or more, if needed)
Dutch Gold Wild Flower honey

Sift dry ingredients together. Cut in the lard until crumbly. Add water and mix until dough holds together. Knead 10-15 times until dough forms a smooth ball. Cover and let set for 20 minutes. Divide dough into 2 parts. Roll dough to 1/8" thickness on lightly floured board. Cut into 3" squares or triangles. Do not allow to dry. Cover those waiting to be fried. When ready to fry, turn upside down so that surface on bottom while resting is on top when frying. Fry in 3" hot oil until golden brown, turning once. Add only a few at a time to maintain proper temperature. Drain on paper towels and serve immediately with Dutch Gold Wild Flower honey.

AQUA DE LIMON (LIME) DRINK

For each serving:
1 cup water
1 lime
1-1/2 tbsp. Dutch Gold Clover honey

Peel a little less than half the rind off each lime. Cut the limes in quarters and put them in the blender with all of the water and Dutch Gold Clover honey. Blend on high setting for five seconds; longer blending will result in bitterness rather than the sweet-and-tart flavor the drink should have. The lime wedges will still be chunky. Pour the contents of the blender through a strainer into a serving pitcher or individual glasses with ice.

AQUA DE MELON DRINK

1 quart water
1/2 cantaloupe, seeds and rind removed, diced (about 1-1/2 to 2 cups diced melon)
1/4 cup Dutch Gold Clover honey

Put the diced melon in the blender with enough of the water to cover. Blend just long enough to make a coarse pulp. Transfer to a pitcher and add the rest of the water and Dutch Gold Clover honey. Stir to dissolve honey. The resulting agua will contain small bits of fruit pulp. You can strain if you insist, but you will be losing nutrients, fiber, and some of the character of the drink.
