As sweet as honey is a simile or metaphor?

Answer 1

As sweet as sugar or as sweet as honey.

Answer 2

It is actually a simile because it is using 'as' to compare something to honey. If it was for example: 'The sorbet was sweet honey melting in my mouth.' That would be a metaphor.

In other words to see whether something is a simile, it needs to use 'like a' or 'as a' to compare something to something else.
