Solution

This scenario is an example of the phenomenon known as "adhesion." Adhesion refers to the tendency of dissimilar particles or surfaces to cling to one another. In this case, the honey adheres to the sides of the bottle due to intermolecular forces, such as hydrogen bonding and van der Waals forces, which result in the honey sticking rather than flowing completely into the tea.

This phenomenon can also be related to the concept of viscosity, as honey is a viscous liquid, meaning it flows more slowly and tends to leave some residue upon pouring. Both adhesion and viscosity significantly impact the behavior of liquids during pouring and transferring.
