Ingredients
1 cup honey
2 tablespoons chili flakes
Optional: 2 teaspoons hot sauce or apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Heat the honey and chili flakes in a small pot over medium heat.
- Once small bubbles form along the edges, remove the pan from heat.
- Let the honey sit for 5 minutes to infuse with the chili flakes. If using, add hot sauce or apple cider vinegar at this point.
- If you prefer smoother honey, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the chili flakes.
- Let the honey cool before transferring it to a jar or bottle for storage.
Notes
Adjust the spice level by adding more chili flakes or using a hotter variety of chili.
For extra tang, try adding apple cider vinegar or hot sauce.
This spicy honey will last for up to 1 month at room temperature.
