Remove the saucepan from the heat and strain the liquid through a fine-mesh sieve. Discard the solids and return the liquid to the saucepan. Add the honey to the liquid and stir until it is fully dissolved.
To serve, pour the Roasted Chestnut Elixir with Sage into mugs and garnish with fresh sage leaves. This drink has a rich, nutty flavor with a subtle sweetness from the honey. The sage adds a lovely earthy flavor that complements the chestnuts perfectly.
