The Only Homemade Hummingbird Nectar Recipe You Need

All you need is white granulated sugar and water. Avoid using honey, artificial sweeteners, or food coloring, as they can harm hummingbirds.

Combine 1 part sugar with 4 parts water. This 1:4 ratio mimics the natural nectar found in flowers, providing the perfect energy boost for hummingbirds.

Bring the water to a boil before adding the sugar. Boiling helps dissolve the sugar completely and kills any potential bacteria or mold spores.

Once the water boils, remove it from heat and stir in the sugar. Continue stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved, creating a clear, smooth solution.

Let the nectar cool to room temperature before filling your feeders. Hot nectar can harm hummingbirds, so ensure it’s cool and safe before use.

Pour the cooled nectar into your clean hummingbird feeders. Fill them just enough to last a few days to keep the nectar fresh and prevent waste.

Clean your feeders every few days. Regular cleaning prevents mold and bacteria buildup, ensuring the hummingbirds have a safe and healthy feeding environment.
