No. Honey is a sweetener made from bees.

Honey and the Vegan Diet

Honey is a thick, golden liquid produced by bees using the nectar collected from flowers. Known for its distinct sweet flavor, honey has been used by humans for thousands of years not only as a sweetener but also for its potential health benefits and medicinal properties. It is composed primarily of sugars like fructose and glucose, and it contains trace amounts of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. The flavor and color of honey can vary depending on the flower source.
