Riddle me this Limerick. part 2

Back at it again my readers

you know the tea is much sweeter

but lo and behold

I know this tea's old

for I bring you good news, old Peter

for this also is an item

that is used by many a some

when you love tea so much

and sweeten it as such

you put a dollop on your thumb

Then stir it straight into your tea.

Then put in a drop...one...two...three.

then stir with a spoon

and sing a wee tune

all the afternoon you will fly free

What possibly could I bee?
