Could have been the honey, especially if it was a "natural" unprocessed
kind. You can't give it to babies because it does have certain elements
which can cause severe allergic reactions.

Pollen. I'm mildly allergic to some kinds of pollen, plus dust and dogs and
cats. Fortunately it can be cured easily with almost any OTC antihistamine.
Honey has never bothered me, though.

Too much cinnamon could totally cause that sort of thing. There's an
old prank in which someone gets dared to eat a teaspoon of cinnamon; I've
seen YouTube videos of people trying to do it and they look like they
suffer 'extreme throat irritation and coughing.'
