This is because honey has a different viscosity to water. Viscosity is the measure of resistance of a fluid to flow. A fluid that is highly viscous has a high resistance (like having more friction) and flows slower than a low-viscosity fluid.

Ether and acetone are the liquids with the lowest viscosities at room temperature that I have encountered, and they are the lowest viscosity common chemicals according to my tables of physical constants.
Honey, for example, has a viscosity substantially higher than water. A viscometer is used to measure viscosity. The range of values measured is several orders of magnitude. Gases have the lowest viscosities of all fluids, whereas thick liquids have the highest.
